He called her over to ask her a question, kissed her, she protested, and so he groped her. What the fuck should she have done differently?
- Legion 16y agoPlease see my response to shaddi. Where you're making a mistake is taking my comments and applying them to her specific sequence of events. If you read what I wrote, you'll note that I was not doing this. I was responding to the comment towards the end of her blog post, which she recycled into her tweet.
- sp332 16y agoDon't go over. It's not a good idea for a woman to go alone with a drunk guy. I thought that was common knowledge - am I wrong? EDIT: if you disagree, please comment instead of downvoting. (If you think my comment harms the discussion, you can downvote of course.)
- cosgroveb 16y agoI had plenty of female friends in college who knew it was perfectly OK to go anywhere and chat with me about anything even when I was gasp drunk. Give me a break.

- cowpewter 16y agoFrom the way it was described she didn't really 'go' anywhere with him except maybe a different section of the crowded bar. It's not like she got in a car with him, or went alone back to his hotel room.
- einarvollset 16y agoYes you're wrong.
