But I tried one, wont have another
That just means I drank it and didn't care for it. There were no college co-eds getting drunk and waking up next to me. There was no drunk sex. Commander, are you replying to the right post?
I was taking it to mean you stopped after one so you'd be able to drive without risking being caught drunk driving. What I meant was, when a man wakes up from too much partying, he accepts the responsibility and blame for his predicament. A woman is too often taught to presume that if something goes wrong, it is always someone else's fault, and that she is always blameless.
i think it was Camile Paglia who pointed out the sexual revolution of the 1960s taught us that women have just as much right to be sexual as men. While she didn't say it -
Spider Man was years in the future - her remarks remind me of its famous line, "With great power comes great responsibility." Paglia said that women should be free to explore their bodies, to have fun, and to explore sex if she wants to. But that also means you don't send mixed signals. If you are on a date with a guy, and you are not going to have sex with him,
do not under any circumstances go to his hotel room or his home. And if you did too much drinking and wake up with some guy you don't know and realize you wouldn't have if you weren't drunk, accept that you probably had consensual sex with him - the vast majority of men are not rapists and won't sexually assault an unconscious woman - and if you're not happy about it, accept that you made a mistake, try to learn from it, and move on. Don't blame others for your mistakes.
