What the fuck? Yes, as you're having sex with someone it is completely normal and good to ask AT LEAST "would this be OK?" or "can we ..." as you go along. Consent to one thing isn't the same as consent to everything. Having consensual sex with a condom becomes unconsensual if one removes the condom unbeknownst to the other, for example.
You clearly fundamentally don't understand consent.
I clearly fundamentally dont believe in casual sexual relationships where consent is an issue. The problem isn't consent. Its that people have normalized hooking up with sexual partners they barely know, before they've even formed any kind of a bond, and then have to precariously navigate all kinds of sexual etiquette because there is little trust, little relationship and no commitment. Sexual assault from lack of consent is a problem created by people who have not made a commitment to love, cherish, protect and nurture the love of their life and made a lasting commitment to them. Its not rocket science to note that the people in this case only met each other a few hours before this whole sordid event happened and were only out for some 'fun'. Its also not rocket science to note that the number of cases of committed couples who have been together for years dragging the issue of 'consent' into a courtroom is far far less, if you can even find those cases at all.
If you play with fire, you're gonna get burned. Just ask some hockey players.
And Im 100% sure that my opinion will be fully accepted here on Lemmy especially by those who love their bar crawling hookups so Im gonna leave it at that. lol. I'm out.
Dude, you're lying. Nobody who thinks women asked to be raped is capable of love. You sound like someone with a history of sexual assault desperately trying to act like they're a person without a history of sexual assault. "Sex is about love and that's why rape is their own fault."
Have fun with the second divorce.
You're being downvoted because modern research doesn't back up your opinion.
If you look at the numbers published over the years by Stats Canada, the US Department of Justice, and The Department of Justice, Canada, you'll see that that the majority of sexual assault victims are women who know their attackers, up to 80% of all reported sexual assaults. The percentage of those women in committed relationships with their abusers ranges from 20-50%
You're getting downvoted to oblivion for a reason. No one is agreeing with you. You need to understand what consent means.
What the absolute fuck are you on about here.
