There are several reasons why alcohol increases the likelihood of sexual assaults. The National Institute of Justice identifies the following factors, to which I'll add some of my own explanations:

Alcohol use can lead to increased aggressive behavior -- so a person who might otherwise act respectfully toward others can become sexually aggressive.Alcohol use inhibits a person's ability to interpret another person's behavior and signals. So a man might think a woman "wants it" when she really doesn't, and when she says no and tries to fight him off he'll think she's "playing."When on a date, alcohol use makes both men and women more likely to think that sex will be a part of the date. Though both may begin the date with that thought, it then can also happen that one person doesn't have a desire for the date to end in sex, but the other insists it will.Alcohol consumption makes individuals take risks they would normally avoid. So a woman may not safeguard herself the way she would normally because she's under the influence of alcohol, and be more in danger of becoming a victim of assault.Alcohol can undermine an individual's capability to resist sexual advances or a sexual assault. If a person is in an intoxicated state, she may become unable to fight back or remove herself from an assault situation.

explanation: we can only guess at how our actions may be perceived in the future. doing something really big like killing lots of people, saving lots of people, affecting the lives of lots of people is a sure fire way of being remembered in historical records. we can also make a difference in the history records by being a small influence on something bigger, whether that is as a civil servant, scientist or artist.

of course you could argue that we all affect history just as tiny cogs in a bigger machine.

if you mean how do people influence our opinions of things which have already happened, then simply by writing a book which looks at things form a different perspective and trying to convince people that this perspective is more accurate or truthful. people do it all the time i.e. richard the third was a terrible or was he? plenty would disagree, it's just that their views aren't the most widely known.n:
