I didn't read it
Bill's example I think was about lies leading to criminal sex. For instance is your decision to be sexual with someone is usually based in part on their marriage status, and a gal who is married tells you that she is single or lets you believe that she is single, and you have sex with her, you have been raped. Your consent was never valid, because you had not been aware of the truth, you where mislead by her presumably with the intent to get you into bed.
I then used the logic that it too much alcohol criminalized sex on the grounds that the decision making process has been skewed by an ingested substance, then we could invalidate the consent of anyone who is on a mood altering medication, or who is stressed or scattered and not able to make decisions in a considered way as normal. If my wife has a bad day at work and brings it home, if I ask for sex and she complies have I just raped her because she never had the ability to consent because she was not in her "right mind"?
This is the direction that we are going in. I claim that this is a mistake.
