Met a girl last night (aged around 18-22) at a party at a complex next door. She'd clearly been a few beers (or an equivalent) in, though not horribly wasted. Prior to this conversation, there'd been a few group conversations I'd been joking in but very little one-on-one chats with her. The first big one went something like this:

"You know what my favorite thing is?"

"What?"

"Do you know what consent is?"

"Yeah?"

"Well it's a yes from me".

I don't normally go drinking around women, so this is a new frontier that seems to break every rule of written ethics. I didn't really respond. A guy there said I gave the wrong answer by not escalating but I'm genuinely not sure how else I should have handled things.

We did keep talking later in the night, and I'm assuming something could be on the table later, but would it be worth it from something so easy?
