No. Full fucking stop.

The only consent that works is fully informed fucking consent. If she was too impaired to consent then that is not ever consent. I don't know about you, but I have never, not even once, not even when I was a stupid teenager been too drunk to know the fucking difference between someone who is capable of providing consent, and someone who is too inebriated to provide legitimate informed consent. A person's humanity and dignity are important to me, so If you're unsure, don't fucking do it. I try to stay civil on Steemit, so excuse my language, but this topic is one that warrants it.

This comment never showed in my replies. Thanks for your input! That has to be the most logical way to approach it. Keeping everyone in the equation safe. Feel free to curse all you want on my page! It came with a great message. Thanks again @mattie.b-leaver.

In my opinion looking at these people's mannerisms and the details of the story, (counting seconds while shit faced drunk) personally I think they are both lying opportunists. I agree with you about consent being fully informed. I think Thordis is a fraud trying to cash in on this idea of rape culture.
