When does no = yes?
Take your moral pomposity out of the equation for once and just answer on that score.
The question is legit and reasonable. You could answer a question just this once.

.. no means no whether sober (or) drunk...
How much responsibility do easily bedded women share for the reputations of pick up artists?
Whether one is given consent is not a licence to do wrong.
The civil law gives consent to murder babies.
Doesn't mean it's OK to go ahead and murder babies just because you have consent to do so.
Same for encouragement.
Whether another encourages you to do wrong, the responsibility to give in or resist is still upon you.
Neither consent or encouragement is an excuse for anyone to do wrong.
And why should anyone care either way? If we weren't obsessed with the sexual habits of others, such silly questions wouldn't even be posed.How much responsibility do easily bedded women share for the reputations of pick up artists?
Excellent comment! It's not the place of the law to make us be 'good people'. That's our own responsibility. The law's purpose is simply to protect us from each other while allowing us the freedom to mind our own morality.Whether one is given consent is not a licence to do wrong.

We humans make very bad decisions when we're inebriated.
If you are only interested in the civil law about it (for this particular argument, not that it is the only thing that concerns you), then take the same approach for homos, abortion, adultery.my interest is in the legal application of consent
It doesn't any more than it respects any decisions made while not inebriated.then why does the law respect any decisions made while inebriated?

"No" means "No" as soon as it is spoken.
and if the "no" isn't respected and the unwanted behavior is continued?
is it acceptable to use force to back up the "no"?
I would use deadly force. So one could accept the "no" or enjoy some hot lead center mass.
so if i told my wife "no" and she kept grabbing at me and trying to arouse me, it would be ok for me to shoot her? :freak:
my wife and often enjoyed a bottle of wine or two before enjoying other things
Not if she's still buzzed from the bottle or two of wine she had before "other things."
Who told you that?but apparently yes doesn't mean yes when drunk
Who told you that?
guest on call-in show made claim that consent can't be given when inebriated
OK by civil law?so it's ok for her to continue forcing her unwanted attentions on me if she's drunk
is it ok for me to continue forcing unwanted attention on her if i'm drunk?
