Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The decision of the Ontario Court of Appeal in R. v. A. (J.) raises the important issue of whether a woman can give prior consent to sexual activity that takes place while she is unconscious and has significant implications for our understanding of consent generally. The decision of the majority, which endorses the possibility of valid advance consent, poses serious risks for the safety and bodily integrity of women and is inconsistent with the definition of non-consent developed by Canadian courts in the past two decades.The authors review several other cases and concludes that Canadian courts have rejected the notion that passivity can be equated with consent and unconsciousness is the ultimate passivity. They conclude it is vitally important to women's sexual equality that they never be deemed to be consenting to sexual activity in the absence of current capacity to consent.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
