Health Science 101 Guidelines
Greetings! Welcome to Health Science.
Here's where we talk about the latest fad diets, the advantages of vegetarianism, the joy of exercise and good health. Like everywhere else at Tweb our decorum rules apply.
This is a place to exchange ideas and network with other health conscience folks, this isn't a forum for heated debate.
Sounds crazy at first glance but these guys are commendable for even trying:

Many have spoken out against the epidemic of sexual assault on college campuses, and many others have spoken out against the booze-fueled party culture in which sexual assaults often take place and the “progressivism” that blurs distinctions between different kinds of assault. While the pundits and policymakers debate the issue, four guys at North Carolina State University are doing something proactive (and unorthodox): inventing a nail polish that can detect date rape drugs.
3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures --1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (borrowed with gratitude from 37818's sig)
Most girls don't have a chem lab in their purse but all of us can wear nail polish. Dip in a finger every time you go back to it and not have to worry. Sounds very practical to me.
Well, if you don't drink, you won't be slipped a mickey that way, anyway.
Girls have had it slipped in soft drinks too.

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought, good grief, nail polish that contains a date-rape drug that is supposed to soak through the nail into the bloodstream. I found it hard to believe, and decided to check. Woo! Good it's the other way around.

Apparently some feminists are upset about this because they say that it places the burden on women to avoid being victims rather than by teaching men not to commit date rape. It seems awfully naive to me to think that telling people not to commit crimes is a panacea for crime and that it is offensive to provide people opportunities such as self defense. Are they going to go discourage women from training in the martial arts for self defense next?

That's probably at least a bit of an exaggeration. They're most likely not upset about the color-changing nail polish itself.

From what I've seen there has at least been an acknowledgement that it was created with good intentions, yes.

Take a bottle of water with you and don't let it out of your sight.
Most places won't let you bring anything in. not even bottled water as you can't tell clear spirits apart from bottled water.
And as for not letting things out of your sight, a female friend of a female friend was out at a club (they were together with a groups of friends) got slipped something when someone tapped her on the shoulder and distracted her for a second, allowing someone else to put the drugs in her drink (which was a soft drink). what saved her was her friends being with her and realising she had been given something.
Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 1 Corinthians 16:13
