Preamble: I am not defending the guy mentioned in the article, his only defense could be that he was drunk(not good enough imho).

What about when at a nightclub? What about women who rely on easily misinterpret-able body language?

What if two people have totally consensual intercourse where one has more power over the other one?

The issue I take here is that people pretend like the issue is black and white, while it's incredibly nuanced. The other issue is that when gender comes into play, people become emotional, I would love to talk about this topic as if instead of sex the guy demanded money from the women in exchange for the deal, then I feel we could have a much more rational conversation about this.
