    Alright Louis, it’s time to log off.

    For real though, this is some serious psychopath logic. Consent isn’t just merely asking the question of whether you can do what you want to do without even waiting for a clear-cut response. If I ask someone if I can break their phone, they laugh because they think I’m joking, and then I go and actually do it — guess what? There was never any consent.

      There also literally could not be consent due to the nature of their relationship and the massive power imbalance. But I’m not going to waste my time trying to explain that to this person.

      It sounds to me like he waited for consent and this is just her words

      I don’t really want to live in a world where people are punished because people change their mind later after consenting to something

        So essentially you’re saying she was lying, or at least disingenuous. And that she “consented” but later changed her mind. I can’t say I’m surprised you’re of the crowd that gives the benefit of the doubt to sexual predators over victims, but it definitely doesn’t make it any less jarring to see it so blatantly.

          He never sexually assaulted anyone and was punished plenty

          Not calling anyone a liar but I can’t come to the same conclusion as you reading what was said

          Stop trying to paint me as someone other than reasonable, I’m just not an over zealous social justice warrior
