@pukebood WHO source?
world health org
i know, i'm asking for where to look specifically
Yeah, there is that too: a lot of the time I hear feminists going on about the "1 in 5" statistic, they also usually drum up alcohol and parties. I think maybe that is why I jumped into that topic, since it is the one that is usually being discussed on this issue, on both sides.
@JadenFrostwolf That CSA study is the source of the 1 in 5 stat
"It may also occur when the
person aggressed is unable to give consent – for
instance, while drunk, drugged, asleep or mentally
incapable of understanding the situation."
Yeah.
considering the following qualifiers, you need to be *pretty* drunk
but they dont extrapolate on that, which has probably caused some issue
@pukeblood, i interpret that to mean that alcohol can negat consent, which i agree with. You don't think that it means it must right? That is to say that being drunk means you can't consent full stop.
Degree and context matter
Yeah. There's a difference between having a couple drinks or smoking some pot, and being five bottles in and doing a much harder substance.
And even then id hesitate to call consensual sex with a long term boyfriend with whom you do hard drugs assault
I dont see how I couldve been interpreted as 1 drink = no agency
@pukeblood "according to WHO it does"
yeah their definition is right there lmao
all it says is "while drunk"
it CAN be interpreted that way, thats a problem
yes, so our discussion was over whether context and degree mattered. My statement was meant to be read as more or less 1 drink = no agency
also from WHO; http://www.who.int/substance_abuse/terminology/who_lexicon/en/
"Intoxication is highly dependent on the type and dose of drug and is influenced by an individual's level of tolerance and other factors. Frequently, a drug is taken in order to achieve a desired degree of intoxication. The behavioural expression of a given level of intoxication is strongly influenced by cultural and personal expectations about the effects of the drug."
obviously these cases need to be solved uniquely, regarding the drinking ones, meanwhile a majority of the problem stems from relationship abuse and that doesnt seem to have come up in all the activism surrounding rape culture
@pukeblood, in my experience its a major topic of discussion amongst people informed on the topic
we trivialize drunk sex because its socially acceptable, even according to the CSA study, but I dont think we trivialize relationship abuse
Even less so when it comes to men. I know that is kind of out-of-nowhere, but even going off of that study, I don't think it's a leap in logic to assume that a lot of male victims of abuse don't report what is happening to them.
Laci Green for example, talks about this a bunch
Aside from the studies, for the sake of clarity, my only real "experience" with these kinds of issues is what I leaned while attending some lower-level criminal justice and law enforcement classes.
good, it SHOULD come up, we SHOULDNT ruin mens careers/futures for going to parties and having sex with culturally-defined consenting adults
i mean
one of my roomates had this whistle blown at him
the solution is to just
go to the police
so I get med
@pukeblood my best friend was falsely accused to.
On a *somewhat* related topic, my friend who is probably as left as one can be without going full-on "SJW" was called a racist recently.
extreme-left is racism, how left are they?
@JadenFrostwolf Rascism seems to be an ill-defined and poorly understood term these days. I went to weird high school with a lot of poor black kids (basically the school was situated such that it drew a middle class white population and poor black population
I would say "typical college indoctrinate" level, but not quite that far?
My friends said i was being rascist when i said the black kids were the kids who did all the fighting.
Facts ain't rascist yo
