    Okay, yes... for some people I'm sure you're right. But I'm sure for other people that isn't the case- you've never heard of someone waking up beside someone that they never would have slept with if they weren't drunk? So, you think everyone that has ever said that, really would have slept with said person?

    let me put it this way, I think a lot of people would behave in a lot of different ways than they do if they thought they could get away with it.
    getting drunk is a very convienent excuse to themselves and everyone else that they can do

    Yeah, I'll just leave it at this- I understand what you're saying and I agree on many cases. But I do think that there is a difference between isolated events and patterns and that alcohol does lower inhibitions and everything I said earlier. There's all kinds of different cases- not one cookie cutter mold.

    I see your point of view, bt to answer the title of the thread, its not a valid excuse for bad behavouir, if you can't act well when drunk, don't drink, you don't suddenly turn into a whole different person

    Yep, it's never an "excuse" that just dismisses behavior. People are always still responsible for what they do when they're drunk. I've never heard of crimes being thrown out of court "because the person was drunk"..haha :D

    I, personally, though would look at exactly WHAT the "bad behavior" was and whether it was an isolated event or a pattern that said person would get drunk and behave like that. I will say this- If someone was gonna cheat on me... and it just happened because the person got too drunk and regretted it... or if the person was completly sober and did the same thing, I'd find it easier to forgive if the person was drunk. That's just me though.

    hmmmmm, I wouldn't be concentrating on the 'drunk' bit to be honest with you and also wouldn't you be paranoid every time that person went to the pub

    I'm actually all talk. I'm quite a gentlemen. Especially when I'm drunk.

    Some mystics believe amethyst stones are a natural Anti-Intoxicant - which allows the wearer to drink as much alcohol as you want without becoming inebriated - but tell that to the cop who just pulled you over [​IMG]

    Grab the cops ass. It's a sure out 10-15% of the time.

    Sure a beating the other 85-90%, but you gotta be willing to raise the stakes some times.

    What's wrong with the question being vague? It has allowed for more complex arguments in defining what "inappropriate" is and has as a result made for a more interesting thread.
