I get what youre saying breh, but do you really think all these hollywood guys (many of whom did that shyt and are guilty as fukk) didnt think they had the green light too?
Consent is a very relevant discussion. But to me it is secondary to the idea of respecting women as actual people and not sexually objectifying women. Because thats the root of the problem here.
Alot of men (and i include myself in this) feel that when men get aroused or are feeling someone, then through a vague definition of cues, men have the green light to escalate the sexual activity.
What *instead* should happen is that somewhere along the way, we should realize that sex is a two way street. What I as a man want to do can and should only fly if the other person wants to do it as well.
This is a very difficult situation to deal with because it challenges how our entire society views sex.
My personal theory is our society still has such a puritan view of sex. So much so that sexual activity with strangers/casual acquaintances is supposed to be spontaneous, rough, uncaring and objectifying and that "pure, loving, and respectful sex" should only be limited to those you care about.
If we truly viewed sex as a beautiful experience shared between two or more people and the goal should be for *everyone involved* to feel good, i guarantee sexual assault would decrease.
