Trigger warning: Rape, depression I. Story time. Take a look at this Reddit thread by a woman who seems lost about what to do when she found out that her partner had drunk sex with someone else (it is a long read but, indulge me): My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 5 years, starting in high school and all the way through college and part of grad school. We haven’t lived in the same place for most of our relationship, but we worked really hard to see each other whenever we could and we had plans to be in the same place once we graduated from grad school. Throughout our relationship we have deeply discussed various scenarios and how we would react. One such example is cheating- we talked extensively about how if either of us ever felt the impulse, we would end our relationship before anything happened. We also agreed that there is no such thing as too drunk to know cheating, you still have a conscious even when you are inebriated.

Men can hope they are allowed to rubber up, try to pursue some misdemeanor charge like assault, and then be told get a job because child support is expensive.
Even when the victimized man is 14 at time of conception and the child support receiving violator is 36. Nathanial J case of 1996.
