So like one of the things, I saw this starting to happen on university campuses when they put all these rules in about what constituted consent. Now the thing they really always avoided was alcohol because there's no date rape without alcohol. Like alcohol is at the bottom of almost all normative sexual misbehavior.

So if the universities were the least bit serious about the things they claim to be serious about, for example, they'd focus on alcohol.

Well, and the strange thing about it is that there's some truth in that, right? Because alcohol does make people drunk. Well, unconscious, if you drink enough of it, that happens to be a problem. And then before unconscious, there's not knowing what the hell's going on, or caring. And then there's the next day regret. And part of the next day regret is, well, did I really give consent?

And then you can't remember. Like we showed, I did a lot of research on alcohol, we showed that if people drank enough to get their blood alcohol level up to legal intoxication. So that was 0.08. They showed about a 75% decrement in memory after three minutes. Like you could tell them something, ask them three minutes later, the people who were, and that's not very drunk.

It's called the Joe Biden effect. Yeah, right, right, right. So, you know, under what circumstances do you actually have consent, like real consent? Well, I guess it depends on how seriously you take sex. If you think that it's a game, then there's no issue. But the problem with that theory is it's not a game. So you're liable to get hooked in a vicious manner.

And I don't see any solution to that except for the traditional solutions. And the kind of stories you're telling, the fact that the workplaces have become these toxic pits of surveillance I mean, where the hell are people supposed to meet each other if it's not at work? Like it's so insane.

What, you're only gonna meet the people that you meet.
