You were right maybe 20 years ago. But now many judicial precedents t say otherwise! > Drunk but conscious people are very much able to consent "Conscious" is highly individual state. I would strongly recommend you to look up current situation, it may prevent a very nasty situation, where judge has a different opinion! Most guys I know take god knows what drugs, mixed with vodka and Redbull... Far from shining beacon of "consciousness". But they are still able to walk and talk, and somehow get home...

  California Penal Code section 261 (a)(3) > If a person is prevented from resisting by an intoxicating or anesthetic substance, or a controlled substance, and this condition was known, or reasonably should have been known by the accused. Look up statutory rape, duress... If you want some actual cases, search at relevant forums. I am really not going to give legal advice here.

    You said this: > People who drink alcohol can not give a consent! Your quote quote clearly does not say people who drink alcohol cannot give consent. In fact, it says: > If a person is prevented from resisting by an intoxicating… Do you not understand that that is not the same thing? You made the claim that someone drinking one beer cannot give consent. Nowhere does your quote support that claim.

      This is how statutory rape works. Consent is invalidated by a law! If person are intoxicated, they are prevented from resisting. So even if they give a verbal consent, this consent is invalidated by section 261 (a)(3), because they were prevented from resisting.

        You ignored my post. Drinking a beer does not prevent one from resisting. Frankly you don’t seem to be understanding the statue you posted. Your position is ludicrous. It would imply that a married couple in California can’t have sex without it being rape if one (or both?) drink a single glass of wine with dinner. Think over the argument you’re making.

Perhaps that is true in some places in the USA. I am quite confident it is nowhere close to true in most of the world.
