"...for the Commonwealth to meet its burden of proof on the complainant's nonconsent by establishing that she was incapable of consenting, the Commonwealth must show not simply that she lacked sobriety or was intoxicated, but that as a result of the alcohol and drugs she consumed, the complainant's physical or mental condition was so impaired that she could not consent."

I'm one of those "very few" that can say I have never had sex with a woman who has been drinking. Drunkeness turns me off, both sexually and socially.
Only once in my life have I done anything with someone who had been drinking, and that consisted of nothing more than kissing, not even any groping.

Don't you think laws have to stand whether the perp is forgiven by the victim or not?
