Actual scinerio that happened in my town.

A drunk 20 year old had sex with a sober 15 year old. They had been "dating" for two weeks as on IMing, going out to dinner, that's stuff so the town is pretty convinced he knew her age.

The next morning she went to the hospital and said he raped her, and got the whole invasive procedure done.

He is now claiming he was raped because he was drunk.

And she shouldn't have been dressed so provocatively if she didn't want to have sex or dance with him, or get a ride home from him or continue to text him till she had the procedure done.

Now in my back water little town more than likely he will be found guilty.

Assuming there is not more to the story, who would you deem guilty?

I'd like to know different sides and if you could help me that would be great.

This is a new case and groundbreaking for our little town that a woman could be called a rapist.

NEITHER of them could legally consent. you cannot consent under the legal age of having sex, you also cannot consent while impaired. but because of our society, he will be found guilty.

It seems a little ignorant to blame the girl, or in any way say she "cried rape." That is a term that needs to die a quick death, as far as I'm concerned. Stats show that it happens far less often than people assume, which means actual dumbass rapists are left to walk free.

i do agree with that. they both knew better. but, because is older he'll be charged regardless. its wrong, in my opinion. 20 and 25, no one would blink an eye because they're both adults. i just know that a lot of girls cry rape once they realize what they've done. i know people who have done that.

I'm confused. So she raped him but somehow the way she was dressed is somehow relevant?Yeah. No.I'm just going out on a limb here, but if he's also building a 'defense' I'm going to assume he actually wasn't raped at all. Sounds like someone trying to cover his own ass after having sex with a 15 year old.

Thank you it's disgusting how many women are blaming a 15 year old child for her part in her own rape. Ridiculous.

Exactly what I thought!!! Like, he claims that he was raped...yet her "provocative" clothes had something to do with that? IMO, he's trying to cover his tracks because he know he fucked up.

He is wrong. But if he was drunk and she was sober, she's got no right. I get that she is 15, but she lied.

How on earth do we make the mental leap from sobriety to lying?

Connie, that's ridiculous. There's no penalty for a teen that has sex with an adult, so there's nothing to get out of... statutory rape is a crime because it endangers children... naturally they don't punish the child for being raped. . .

Sounds like she regretted it so she lied and said it was rape. For that reason i think she should be in trouble.

Even if she hadn't reported it, it's her parents' right to press charges, because under the law, it's rape. It was his responsibility to know the law and abide by it, whether she "wanted it" or not. He took his own future into his hands, drunk or not. We hold drunk drivers responsible; he should be

I posted this because it's getting mixed reactions in my community, not once has anyone been so immature about the situation that that ignore any of the logic behind it, that's including his mother and her grandmother they both know both parts are wrong. Maybe you need to take a step back and cool off.

A lot of you keep saying that what's wrong with our society is that he will be found guilty. What's wrong with our society is that you haven't considered the possibility that she actually was raped. Obviously more information is needed to make a decision.

I should also add, if he was the one getting "raped", why would he say something about her provocative clothing making him want to have sex with her? He kind of just fucked himself more there. That doesn't make any sense. On the other hand, it also doesn't matter whether a woman is letting her breasts hang out or if she is covered head to toe... That doesn't give someone consent to do whatever the hell they want to her. It's called, don't touch or have sex with a fucking woman that didn't give you permission and there won't be any issue! Stupid men.

Yea he stupid. but maybe he was trying to say she really dress her age. he could be trying to say the way she presented her self. IDK. like she wanted the attention. not saying with the rape part or anything.....you know a stripper dress to get attention for money but doesn't mean they want sex....

Yes, it doesn't matter if the minor is stark naked, she actually can't lawfully consent.

I don't care who was drunk, how anyone is dressed, or none of that extraneous shit that leads to victim blaming.15 year olds cannot consent.It was rape.

I'm not saying 15 yearolds can't have sex, I'm saying - legally - 15 year olds cannot give consent. It's concerning that you don't know this.

He obviously seduced her. A 20 year old man has no business talking to a 15 year old child in a romantic way. Would you sleep with a child if you were drunk? That's a stupid excuse. Idk what the court will decide but I hope he is found guilty.
