‘Affirmative Consent’ Standard Passes the California Assembly and Senate
Remember, kids, there are two things you must do every time you have sex: wear a condom, and get consent in writing and certified by a notary public.
Greg Piper at the College Fix has the story:
BREAKING: ‘Affirmative Consent’ Rape Standard Passes California Assembly
California colleges are one step closer to enforcing an “affirmative consent” standard on campus sexual activity, with the state Assembly on Monday passing SB 967, already passed by the state Senate, the Associated Press reported.
The bill is going back to the Senate “for a final vote on amendments,” the AP said:
Silence or lack of resistance is not consent under the standard, nor is consent while a victim is drunk.
It applies to all colleges and universities accepting state money for financial aid. Some Republican lawmakers say the bill overreaches by regulating bedroom activity.
If approved by the Senate, the bill goes to Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk.

we’re a special kind of stupid here in #Failifornia
One very important question – does it apply equally to both sexes. And what if both are drunk?
And especially: what if it’s two women who get hammered so they lose their inhibitions to (have an excuse to / blame it on alcohol) experiment with their bisexuality / lesbianism?
A lot of first timers to trying out things like that, let alone 3-somes, try it in college, get drunk to lower their own inhibitions, have an excuse later (“I was so hammered, I can’t believe I did that / don’t remember what happened) … and while some chalk it up to “I was in college” others will play the passive victim role and in claiming to BE a victim, that mean another person in that incident was a villain.
I’m not trying to go down a rabbit hole and just talk about sex – but what I’m describing happens all to often while in college.
When it’s two women – then who’s the victim? Those cases, I suspect, put our PC colleges in quite a quandary.
