I'll never forget because the women told us that if you have sex with someone who is drunk its rape ( that I disagree with).There are gradations of drunk, and drunk women are usually picked up by drunk men. When you are drunk, you are less able to judge situations realistically. The reason so many drunk encounters end in "he said/she said" sexual assault cases is that an impaired man is unlikely to be a good judge of whether or not a woman is impaired.
I dated a guy once who literally watched me vomit my guts out from drinking too much and then STILL wanted to have sex immediately after. He wasn't a rapist or an asshole, and I was still clear enough to tell him "no" and he accepted that, but that's some pretty poor judgment. If I had passed out, I don't think he would have taken advantage of that, but with his judgment that fucked up, who knows? That's how good guys get in bad situations.
The drunk hookup culture causes problems for sure.
