Is it considered rape if you were to hit on a person who is wasted asf?

Yes

yes since they aren’t in the right mindset to give valid consent

Not hit on if ypu mean flirting but sex and sexual gestures, yes

Rape implies “penetration” BUT this is definitely sexual assault, because he’s too drunk to fully consent

Rape does not always imply penetration

Rape is when a person intentionally penetrates another's vagina, anus or mouth with a penis, without the other person's consent. ... The overall definition of sexual or indecent assault is an act of physical, psychological and emotional violation in the form of a sexual act, inflicted on someone without their consent. - here’s a definition for you

Hey I think you're totally correct that it can be called sexual assault. But you are still going by a slightly outdated definition of rape. Once you do a full sexual act with someone at that level of inebriation you LEGALLY enter into rape territory:

Y'all have to be careful because the definition of rape has been changed a lot through history because the definition was much too simple in the first place to give victims justice. It will probably change again as the justice system is forced to take every case seriously unlike in the past.

Here's a definition for you, I explain in detail how it can be considered both:

And not the be rude but chile I'm a survivor of attempted rape myself and I've spent much of my college career researching rape culture and the history of rape as an act of violence. Not to mention I had to read a whole book on it for my self defense class, we literally talked about that subject every class, including the discussion around how the definition of rape has constantly changed.

I'm really not the one to have this argument with.

This never was an argument to begin with. So if you want one you can have it with yourself. As for me I was sexually assaulted drunk on someone’s passenger seat, however I wasn’t penetrating so I was never comfortable with calling it “rape” and that’s why I don’t use that word bcs by simple definition it does imply “Penetration” I’m not arguing with you, I’m just explaining my thought process from my OWN personal experience.

Because you said that was the definition I assumed you meant the OVERALL definition. Hence why I sent you the updated /legal/ definition of what rape is considered to be. You never even mentioned that it was your personal view. You stated it as a fact so I replied with a fact of my own. My point still stands, the legal definition includes doing any type of sexual contact with a drunk person, period. (especially if you had intent to get them drunk).

I'm sorry that happened to you and I'm not going to tell you how to address your trauma. I simply pointed out your general definition of rape is outdated. If you read the first link you would see what I mean by that.
