A law change has been mooted allowing juries to decide whether a woman was too drunk to give consent.Are women going to have to sign a piece of paper consenting to sex? Is drunken sex going to be outlawed? Maybe police officers are going to break in and breathalise couples engaged in sex.
"Giving consent is active not passive, and it's up to everyone to make sure that their partner agrees to sexual activity," she said.
Rape is a serious crime. Most rape is perpetrated by someone close to the victim, ie a parner. This is another proposed law which seems to show that all the government is interested in is legislation. Why do some men feel they can take advantage of women? That's the real question.
