This saddens me a great deal. I expected so much more from you, John. You are essentially blaming the victim. "She shouldn't have gone upstairs." She shouldn't have gotten in his bed. So I guess when I was sexually assaulted by an Anchorage neighbor when I was 16, it was all my fault because I was stupid enough to go in his house to "wait for a phone call," he said. It is exactly this line of thinking which basically gives men and frat boys permission and forgiveness later when they take full advantage of that drunk, drugged, or simply naive female. When you said the girl never should go upstairs in the first place, you are leaving out the part about her altered judgement (and, yes, her own sexual desire enhanced by the alcohol and/or drugs) being the reason she is stumbling up those stairs in the first place. This is why date rape drugs are so popular with boys and men who believe that's the only way they can score. 

This column just proves you really have no clue about women at all.
