Not because any of them were unreasonable -- they weren't! -- but because I expected a higher percentage of "it's-not-anyone's-fault." In retrospect, it makes sense; many/most of my readers found me through other gunbloggers, and gunnies are the most you-break-it-you-bought-it, personal-responsibility-believing people I've EVER met.Lissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970856329586708087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-80888286379317098502010-09-23T03:47:15.596-05:002010-09-23T03:47:15.596-05:00From her blog:

However, to empathize and have compassion for her sober revelation does not require what occurred to have been rape in the sober-non-consent and under-duress sense.<br /><br />If someone gets drunk of their own will is that consent to have impaired judgement? If two intoxicated people have sex then at least there is some parity in their efforts to discover bad results.<br /><br />Regardless, don't have sex while drunk and don't have sex with drunk people; if not for yourselves then for others so they won't have to listen to sad pathetic tales.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
