I agree with you, but we aren't talking about rape here.In the old days, when a guy got drunk and slept with someone and had regrets, it was chalked up to a learning experience. The same was true for a girl.
Now, if a girl gets drunk and has regrets, it's called rape.
I remember watching an episode of Cheers recently with my son where Carla sleeps with a semi-regular at the bar, but can't remember who she took home. I had to warn my son that today, the guy will get blamed for rape, because today, it doesn't matter if they are both drunk, the guy is the villain if they are both drunk.
Men have no rights anymore, they are always the villain. It's interesting how everything has become political.

Then again in the past if a man raped a women, well.... it was just considered sex and the woman had to deal with it.
The feminist culture is redefining the terms.
What we are talking about is girls going to parties, getting drunk, and sleeping with guys. In the morning, they feel shame about what they did, and when the guy they like doesn't call them back or want to have anything to do with them, they turn around and call it rape because they are hurt.
In some instances, yes, it is forced sex, but in many others, it is murky at best. Neither the guy or girl can actually remember what happened. So you tell me, who can be blamed? Can anyone?
All I am saying is, if the girl was drunk, there IS NO RAPE. If she was binge drinking and partying so hard, and the guy she was with was doing the same thing, then neither can be held criminally liable for anything.
If they can be, why can't the man say he was raped?
It's like folks don't remember college, have never been, or went to a lame school.
Absolute shite. If the woman is too drunk to say yes then it is rape. Women have a right to get drunk without having to worry about some pervert climbing all over her.
So women need additional protections that men do not get, is that your point?
What if the man is drunk as well? Why does her drunkenness absolve her of any responsibility in this, but does not absolve the man?
Are you saying you want two different standards?
