At what blood alcohol level does a woman lose the ability to consent to sex?
This is a serious question. In fact, its so deadly serious that men who fail to take heed of it are liable to find themselves defending against a rape accusation. And whether a man selected for ritual public vivisection fields a successful legal defence or not, on the basis of accusation, his family, career, life, reputation, friendships, and everything else of value to him is destroyed.
So again we return to the question, at what blood alcohol level does a woman lose the ability to consent to sex? This question is never answered by the ideologues who endlessly shriek the reality denying claim of rape culture. In fact – the question itself, provoking of critical thinking is sufficient to get the asker banned from any feminist forum it's asked on.
This question leads us to others. For example: If a woman, after some as-yet unknown quantity of ethanol ceases to be an enfranchised adult and reverts to a volition-free ward of the state, then surely, a man deep into his cups is equally no longer a willing or enthusiastic participant to sex, but himself a rape victim as well.
Nope, at least, not if you ask a proponent of the rape-culture lie. You'll notice there I don’t call it a myth. It's a lie because myths don't tend to emerge due to malicious and planned deception. But the point is that men overcome with drink don't become rape victims because of a magic invisible force called 'pay-tree-are-key' Yes, yes, that.
Another interesting question we're never allowed to ask is, if we can get nicked and thrown in jail for operating a motor vehicle while drunk, that implies personal responsibility for choices and actions.
Have you been drinking sir? And do you know how fast you were going?
I wasn't driving drunk officer, my car raped me!
So if you're in the shit for making the conscious choice to drive a car after 4 beers – how is it that if you own a vagina – all those beers turn you into a victim rather than a sexually irresponsible jackass ( thats another word for slut ) And for that matter, if we dont swallow this context variable accountability based on whose gonads end up in the slammer - doesn't that mean that alcohol impaired sluts who spread their legs after a visit to the pub are actually criminals in the very same way that the dirty old man who mows down children in the street drunk behind the wheel of his white tradesman van. You vile slut, throw her in jail.
So Again : At what blood alcohol level does a woman lose the ability to consent to sex?
The answer of course is any blood alcohol level at all, because this isn't really about anyone being victimized. Well, except men but they don't matter. The moving, invisible, retroactively re-definable myth of informed consent is a great big ruse. And the real goal is to render normal healthy behavior subject to selective criminalization based on adherence to ideology, and owning a penis.

NAWALT
You just hate women. This is one of the most common responses to statements or arguments made by an MRA (men's rights activist ). At it's base - “you just hate women” is lazy and false – which means that anyone offering it as a rebuttal, is lying and dishonest. It's offered to change the topic, to silence the discussion, and to belittle and marginalize the target. Criticism of a group is not the same as hatred of that group.
One of the things we talk about – or that comes up in MRM discussions is NAWALT – not all women are like that. Usually, this comes sharpy on the heels of some loose pronouncement from an MRA on the topic of women. Often, this is the lazy rebuttal from a blue pill believer, or a woman for whom the pronouncement being rebutted struck a little too close to home.
Not all women are like that. And on it's face – it's true, not all people in a major biological demographic are going to exactly conform to statement encompassing that entire group. But it's lazy – it's a knee jerk reflex, and it's utterance as rebuttal doesn't even require knowledge of the claim being rebutted, just that something, anything was said about women. Not all women are like that. It's not just lazy – its dishonest. Its dishonest because the truth of the pronouncement being rudely crashed aside by this bland, lazy platitude is eclipsed, and shunted aside unexamined. And what it usually means when we hear not all women are like that, its that yes, indeed they are, all of them, just like that, with a few notable exceptions.

Accountability
If you've been to a voice for men, or you're a listener of AVFM radio you might be aware that women in western culture are increasingly socialized to have no acquaintance with legal, economic, or personal accountability. You might also be aware of this phenomenon if you live on the planet earth.
We are, as a culture endlessly bludgeoned with the message from our media that if an adult woman has a drink of alcohol, she's incapable of rendering informed consent to sex. If, for that matter a woman feels pressured, financially disadvantaged, or if she changes her mind after having consensual sex, then she is not responsible for her own choices and actions, but you are.
Additionally, western criminal courts increasingly provide a mandate for criminal non accountability for women when they commit violent crimes, such as the vicious premeditated mutilation of her husband by Katherine Becker, or the infanticide of convenience by Kasey Anthony, and women across north america who physically assault their children and spouses with legal impunity.
The family courts also serve as a wealth appropriation tool, redistributing the earnings of men whose wives exercise their legal option to discard their husbands while retaining their incomes.
And all of this is driven by the need to satisfy a mandate that women are not only oppressed by a sinister patriarchy, but are so downtrodden that they cannot reasonably be expected to take personal responsibility for their sexual choices, their violent actions, or their own economic interests. Feminists have been telling us for decades that all outcomes for women are the responsibility of men, and not the responsibility of women for their own choices and actions.
Now, this is one of the areas of contention between members of the men's rights movement, and the mainstream feminist ideology running the courts, the education system, the workplace and our politics.
In fact, while MRAs and Feminists both call themselves representatives of a humanist world view, there has been a persistent absence of common ground between men's rights activists and the vocal ideologues of the feminist movement. However, after considerable study, I believe I've found an area where MRAs and Feminists can begin to come to agreement.
I know, as I'm sure you do that in western culture, women are held to a constantly diminishing level of practical accountability for their actions, legal behavior, or financial choices. This is driven by our culture's chorus of feminist advocates, legal scholars, and lobbyists of various flavor, and one tiny unpopular and contrarian group like ourselves in the me's rights community are likely to reverse the gravitational motion of the tide any time soon. But being MRAs, many – if not most of us continue to find value in reducing the level of social carnage in our society.
So in a culture without accountability for an entire biological demographic – some changes to limit societal damage are definitely in order. First Ill start with what I'm sure feminists and MRAs can get behind. It's not enough to persist in the informal culture and tendency to hold women exempt from legal, personal and financial accountability – I believe that a formalized legal mandate is required. Im sure other MRAs can get behind me in saying that we must modify the structure of the law, so that women are officially not accountable for their actions. Kill your child? Okay, its a man's fault. Cut somebody up with a knife – no problem, women are not to be held responsible. Spend other people's money until both you and them are indebted to a status of indentured slavery for the next 3 generations? Spend away, – men are dying in coal mines to pay off a nation's debts while a 65% female electorate keep putting those corporate whores back into office.
No, we must hold women as a biological demographic unaccountable – and encode that non responsibility into law. Even the feminists can get behind this, it is after all what they've been pushing for for the last 50 years.
But it doesn't end there, because non responsibility is only half a system, its not workable by itself. The other half of the equation is that a biological demographic absented from responsibility cant reasonably continue to do things like vote, own property, enter a legal contract, hold public office, or enter debt – or do anything else that in our society, we give adults the rights to do. Its time to stop resisting, and repeal women's rights – let them enjoy total freedom from accountability, and make them, asa a biological demographic, wards of the state, or of their male guardians. P.E. and I will be drafting a letter outlining these principals, and posting it shortly on a voice for men for you do download to sign, and send in hard copy to your elected representatives.
I hope and believe that feminists and mens rights advocates can come together on this – and I thank you for your kind attention.
