By my logic "or" separates the two lists of things I could buy.

Why would a survey on sexual violence just want to know if you had sex while drinking or high?  In the context of the entire questionnaire the sentence is asking if you ever had sex without giving consent while under the influence or passed out.

Read the intro that question:

I have enough money to buy a pizza, hotdog, and a soda or a pretzel, candy bar, and popcorn

"and popcorn" does not apply to the first part of the sentence, because the "or" separates the two.

No, it's because you used an Oxford comma.

Hahahahahahaha jesus this is pathetic

He knew he was wrong over an hour ago. There's no point responding when he's being disingenuous.

Totally...but I wanted to post the ACTUAL wording to make it completely clear.

Why don't you read it again? The intro clearly states "because they were drunk, high, drugged OR passed out from alcohol, drugs or medications".

Why would they say passed out from being drunk, high or drugged twice?

Quote:Sometimes sex happens when a person is unable to consent to it or stop it from happening because they were drunk, high, drugged, or passed out from alcohol, drugs, or medications. 

Because the question is about being unable to give consent when you are under the influence of or passed out from all of the above.

Let's just agree that you think not as many women are raped because of the word "or".

It still wouldn't matter if I said

I can buy a pizza and a soda or a hot dog and a pretzel.

The "or" separates the two.

Do I really have to teach you proper grammar?

And you don't understand context or what constitutes consent.

Oh I understand it fine. You just can't grasp the function of "or".

No, I don't think I need your grammar lessons after this thread.

Haha, is that quote from the report?

Oh, man, that's brutal.

Yeah you might need a professional tutor to finally understand, or maybe you should take a English college course.

Lol

What's great is that the description above the question agrees with me. I'm sure you know better than the people who wrote the questionnaire, though...

The question is "When you were drunk, high, drugged or passed out and unable to consent". That's what they were asked. You can try and spin it all you want you will still be wrong.

A quote from the screen shot of the report he linked.

Then why does the questionnaire say you're wrong?

It doesn't. That was the question asked.

So this is not a direct quote from immediately before the question?

It is, but it's not the question they asked the woman.
