Call me old fashioned but one doesn't have sex with women who are unconscious.

Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker states a basic moral boundary in a dry, understated way, calling it old-fashioned rather than obvious. That understatement alone makes the line comic, treating an absolute minimum standard as a quaint personal preference. It's a wry way of turning a plain statement into a joke about manners.
