I guess I can understand that.
Me drunk or drugged is only an extension of my sober self as far as I can tell. Rape has never even crossed my mind(as something to do for real), so I don't think it ever would solely based on what kind of substance I'd be abusing at any one time.
Trying to be a more responsible adult going forward is a healthy goal to have, but blaming alcohol for behavior is stupid. IMO, ofc.
