You gave it a good run, this guy just wants to see himself think in print and reaffirm his own biases. Have a great weekend!

Wow dude, give feministea a break, all these hypotheticals and anecdotal situations aren't really worth the time. You have two women here telling you how important it is to respect a woman's "no" and embrace enthusiastic consent. Maybe just leave it at that? The answer to every one of your questions is nuanced and…

I love this! Could we get a lawyer on behalf of women in general stating the constant attack on our rights is an undue burden? Because it really is taxing keeping up with all this bull.

Sure sure, keep telling yourself 5 years of maintenance sex is the norm and I can’t read. Nonenthusiastic is a conveniently made up word too, especially with instructions to hurry up. I’m not trying to “getcha” so much as I’m trying to point out that “thou doth protest too much.” You sound like a rape apologist who…

“We demonize the tired “sure” or the bored “ok” even as they are no less consenting and more accurate to real life.” This, maybe you need a new relationship buddy? You keep talking about your lame grudgingly given consent of a sexual relationship and then call me the a-hole for pointing it out. You can say this is…

“Do you watch a lot of porn? Because that’s the only place enthusiastic consent is the norm.” That’s your opinion based on your life experiences of your norm. There are many commentators here who would beg to differ that it’s a norm in general, 100% of people I know are enthusiastic sex-havers for one. Heck, you…

Really, I laughed all through my lunch hour. It’s cute that you want to accuse me of hypocrisy, but I’m not the one who said it. You said the only place in your life you see enthusiastic consent is porn. Does that not sound sad? How does pointing out and clarifying what you said yourself make me a hypocrite? I don’t…

I keep trying to read other things but can't focus because I keep cracking up! You are truly precious, keep being you, I take back my last comment about keeping your mouth shut. This is gold!

Still laughing, truly! Such a classic male trope you are! You could do your whole sex better justice by just listening to what you're saying before spewing it out, good luck!

Wow, you really think you're something else, what a joke!?! Rape is theft of consent, get out of here with that! I didn't insult your sex life, you did and you just double downed to boot, omg! I was just reiterating what you said and pointing out how bad it sounded. Thank you I needed a laugh! (And just because…

Again, the comparison of rape with theft. I mean if we really want to compare it to another crime I’d compare it to murder since it pretty much leaves the victim dead inside. Your car or wallet being stolen does not leave you dead inside. If the only place in your life enthusiastic consent is the norm is porn, I'd say…

Thank you for sharing this!

I think you are under the impression you are have some deep discussion worthy thoughts. Why are guys always comparing rape to theft? Just because some one is cheating doesn't mean they deserve to get raped. Consenting to one act and being forced into another is rape.

Also, he will deny that he lost, accuse the election of being rigged, demand a recount, maybe even blow his top demanding all of America should vote again. His supporters will pretend he is the POTUS, heck he may even pretend. I could see him funding his own White House looking office and just run a parallel…

So true! Men are nothing but pawns for the whims of their boners! People who think guys are human are fools, a man without a boner is not even a man for what is a man if not a boner?

Poor poor emotional menz, how are we supposed to know anything in their lives is about anything other than their boners?

No, "that hurts" means stop. "Stop, that hurts" is redundant. What is complex about yes means yes, or even no means no? Is it only complex because we teach guys that no means maybe but try harder when it comes to girls? Because this is what yes means yes is trying to combat.

I could not tell if Gloria was trying to say that obviously rape happens you should expect it in such situations and insulting men in general, or more along the lines of a girl should be able to assume a guy could be interested in her and getting to know her without assuming she is putting herself in potential danger…

Don't give anyone ideas! It wouldn't surprise me to hear pregnancy tests become a part of regular airport screening anywhere abortion is illegal. Preggos really shouldn't be traveling anyway /s

I have to agree with Conan above me. Those soldiers may have been poor but they were fighting for the right to at least still be better than slaves. Insecure people like to hold on to hierarchies.
