You met her while she was drunk? Then yes technically rape. You can't give consent while drunk.

Both of you are drunk? I'd say no. You lack the intent to take advantage of the person.

I don't know how American bullshit law works, but in Europe it's not rape. The only case when it could be rape is when you forced her to get drunk. Like tied her up and forced her to drink. Otherwise, people are 100% responsible for what they do while they get drunk.

If you think being drunk is a valid defence when it comes to having sex, why wouldn't it be a valid defence when you cause an accident while driving a car? You are drunk and don't know what you're doing just like when giving consent to sex.

It'd be cool if people learned that being super drunk in general isn't smart. If it's to the point where you'll wake up and find out you had sex with some random person, then I think you need to take it down. Don't have 5 bottles of beer. I mean, dear lord. 

 

Americans and their beer.
