NO ONE is forcing Sarah to express those sentiments other than Sarah herself. Just like how Aaron being drunk doesn't excuse his actions, Sarah being drunk doesn't excuse her thoughts. It's the fact that those are her thoughts that's troubling in the first place. And it's not even literally telling Joel that he encouraged it (which is bad enough), but it's her smug self-satisfaction that she would certainly never get sexually assaulted because she creates clear interpersonal boundaries unlike some people, and it's like, you're a ****ty person and that's an incredibly ****ty view to hold. What an awful lasting impression to leave.
