    Let me offer a scenario; two drunk people who wouldn’t normally go near each other spend a night together. The morning comes, regret is in the air for both parties, which of these two people is most at risk?

    The correct answer is: “the one who doesn’t accuse the other on social media”.

    Just remember, no-one gave any indication of gender there. It’s not really about gender at this point - it’s the fact we’ve constructed a world where a casual encounter has the potential to become the prisoner’s dilemma if it is regretted afterwards.

    That’s not a world where people take risks on a date, especially if physical intimacy is on the cards. To much risk!
