When I said she was wrong too, I didn't mean she was at fault for being raped, she wasn't. I meant what she did was also wrong. And it has nothing to do with putting herself in danger. Imagine this story begins the same drunk guy sober girl taking a shower, but ends in "consensual" sex. You know what that'd make her in my mind? A rapist. It doesn't excuse what he did. It doesn't make her at fault for his actions. I'm only saying I think it's morally wrong to do anything sexual with a drunk person. (Obviously there are exceptions like if you're in a relationship or something like that, but even then it's an icky grey area)
That's a fair point. I also find the idea of sex with an intoxicated person objectionable.
As I said, in my opinion - most ways in which people engage in sexual contact seems weird and dishonest. Maybe I have some form of un-diagnosed Asperger's Syndrome, because I find it difficult to comprehend the subtleties of casual sex. But it seems to me that most of these kind of encounters happen under the influence of intoxicants, to varied extent. I know people who have never had sex sober. And since we - as a society - seem to endorse such encounters, as well as consumption of alcohol (I mean - that's what nightclubs are exclusively for), why is it impossible for some people to believe, that being drunk is a natural state for intimacy? Just as they may believe, that posting online intimate and disturbing facts about themselves is a natural reaction to emotional anguish.
But as for this particular case - I couldn't tell, if I tried to figure it out. And I don't really want to.
