He crossed the line. Drunk or not it is no excuse whatsover to act like that towards a lady. The group of friends you were out with deserve to know what happned, some of them could be put into a similar situation and not be as lucky. I am sure you will be on your guard moreso due to this event. If you share the same friends in a social setting, then next time he is out with you. Make sure he knows exactly what you think of his behaviour, but make sure you are not aone when you do that. No doubt he will call full of apologies in the near future. If I were you I would give him an ear-bashing then as well.
jlb684 if your gonna re-establish friendship with this guy, speak to him immediately and expose your disgust. He is probably feeling like s**t right now so hit him hard right now about it. It will save your friendship and make him a better person. Drink does change people sometimes unknown to the person. He is probably feeling really guilty but forcefulness is a word you used that would make me feel very uncomfortable. The best of luck to both of you.
Ps if in the future a guy is wasted and stranded and wants to stay over maybe invite a girlfriend over to stay with you as well. There is strength in numbers if anything like that arises again.
My gut feeling has the caution button on full alert when it comes to men that too when they haven been interested and esp. if they are drunk. Thats when i keep a 10 ft distance with anything thats got to do with them. I simply dont believe people when they r under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
It sounds a little over cautious but better careful than sorry i think.
Next time tell him or them that " I'm letting passed the drink out here and not the night and if your willy jump out of your pant, u jump out of my house/home lol.
The man obviously had no respect for you if he behaved the way you said, drunk or not.. seems to me he already had intentions on doing what he did before he came there..
As for you being a friend, yes you did the right thing as you were thinking of human lives..

It's like that here and makes a good sounding board for your sanity sometimes....
I saw a guy a couple of times and foolishly gave him a lift home one night, he'd had a few to drink and I declined his offer to go in, but he became quite forcful in the car and when I said positively no, he said he knew I meant yes! Luckily I managed to talk him out of my car, but it was getting scary.
I remind myself not to be kind anymore I'm afraid.
I t is something i would have done when i lived in UK, but not living here because they view things differently and it would be seen as a come on, more so if they had a drink.

You behaved as a friend and he has abused your friendship. If i were you i would have nothing else to do with the jerk. Being drunk is no excuse. You made it prefectly clear you had no interest in him that way. What gave him the right to think otherwise when you only offered him your couch. Men like him make me so mad . If one of my male friend behaved like this i would never speak to them again .
He wont try that again. This is a big wake up call to him. He will have alot of respect for you from here on in. HINT: Next time you are socialising with him and all your other friends watch how much less he will drink!!!!!

But, he was too drunk to be sensible.
