I guess you can recall everything you did when you were 17 years old. I'm hoping you're up in age like most of the members here.

Well, I suppose if you were a super alpha male at 17 and attended so many drunken parties week after week and grabbed or jumped on top of so many women during that year, that the memories could have all blurred together decades later, then I could believe you wouldn't remember most of the individual parties and humps by then. But, if you were like the rest of the 99% of 17 year old boys, in which bragging about getting to even 3rd base was more often boastful one upmanship than reality at that age, it's pretty hard to believe you wouldn't remember something as memorable as grabbing a woman, locking her in a room, and then trying to force yourself on her and covering her mouth so she couldn't scream. And your buddy who was with you and participating in the endeavor, would have certainly reminisced and joked with you about it for the next several months, if not years...if you were the type of guy that would do that.
Kavanaugh doesn't strike me as the popular charismatic alpha dude who got invited to every party and who was getting laid every weekend. Unless he suddenly turned into an introverted nerd later in life, it seems pretty likely he was an introverted nerd at 17, and not going to very many parties or getting laid easily (without a little assist from alcohol and muscle power, perhaps).
What I find curious is that, Kavanaugh's latest version of denial has him claiming to be certain of not having gone to "that" particular party, even though Mrs. Ford did not give any specifics publicly about where and when exactly the party took place. So, how can Kavanaugh be so sure about that particular party when he doesn't even yet know what time and place she is talking about? Seams to me he is getting a little ahead of himself with his hasty blanket denial.
"Oh, but I didn't even go to that party!"
"Which party was that?"
"Well, um, wh**ever party she would be talking about, I'm sure I didn't attend that particular one."
"Hmmm. How can you say for sure when she didn't even give the details yet publicly regarding the particular time and place?"
"Oh, she didn't? I thought she did...I mean...er...ok when and where was it again?"
