Chapter 10

This chapter is definitely a heavy reader. There is a lot of information that is heart wrenching. One thing that seems that it will be a big topic, is rape. Is it really considered rape when you have sex while intoxicated? Yes, you are not in your right mind to say yes, but who's fault is it that you are not in your right mind? I think that if you say "no", then it is rape. However, if you have sex with someone and then say it was rape because you were drunk and couldn't make the right choice, it should not be considered rape. You choose to be in that state of mind, then you face the consequences. If you were drinking and driving, and killed someone, they are not going to say that it wasn't your fault because you were not in the right state of mind. They are going to through you in jail and say that you shouldn't be driving after drinking. Same thing with sex, if you can't make the right choice about having sex while drunk, then don't get drunk.
