Why would any woman want to be Christian?

If neither party can remember what happened, I think it would be very difficult to ascertain consent or lack thereof. I think that it is more considered rape if only one party is intoxicated or otherwise incapable of understanding the situation. If both are, then it is much messier and I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know what would happen. It would probably vary from case to case, but I don't know whether or not anyone would be charged with rape.

It almost sounds like you are implying that women commonly fake rape when they are angry at their boyfirends. I will give you the benefit of the doubt on this... I am not a lawyer, so I'm not sure how one would handle this sort of thing.

I'm sorry, you must have us confused with Atheism+. Also, what are "naive" views? Should I show you statistics on how many false reports of rape there are each year...and how many real ones go unreported? Do I need to tell you that the latter is much higher?

Except most modern liberals, apparently.

Wait, I thought we were talking about rape, not promiscuous relationships. How are those related?

Don't bother resisting the urge to debate him? Okay, I wouldn't have been able to do it anyway, I'm too persistent...sometimes I don't know when to quit. And when I do...I propmtly forget.
