Do you enjoy watching while she plays Sonic?

Seems like you would need a companion to tag in for a Speech check.

*sudden clarity*

Thank you thank you thank you thank you. I’m a woman and I agree with you about everything above... but I’m on the fence about doing away with prostitute killing. I would just prefer to see killable male prostitutes as well, and I’m going to be an ass and assume there aren’t any male prostitutes in this game.

How much time do you spend playing video games while she’s bored and pretending to be interested? That shit is NEVER fun.

I notice I shouldn’t go outside and drive for real immediately after playing. But I don’t kill innocents in the game (unless it’s part of the storyline, then I feel appropriately conflicted) so I guess I can’t identify with your... uh... issues, there.

We’ve all been victims of disappeenment. Best course of action for shallow folk like us is to act impressed and block future phone calls.

But she doesn’t know any men named Kye who are different than Gayle Newland - so was she truly deceived? She was having relations with the person she consented with, despite the nature of the relations being not exactly what she expected.

It sounds like she consented to have sex with a person she couldn’t see to confirm her foreknowledge of (at least, the being 27 part of it). Even so, a person could have progeria and look WAY WAY older than they advertise. If you’re wearing a blindfold, and I say, “can I enter you now,” and then I do, I don’t think…

But Kye Fortune wasn’t a different person who the victim had a preexisting relationship with - Kye is a whole cloth creation by Gayle, and as such, demonstrates only aspects of Gayle’s real or desired personality. Therefore, the person assumed a fake name and lied about their sex, and probably medical condition... but…

Impersonating a particular person (for example, Krampus impersonating Santa Claus) is a very different thing from claiming you have attributes that you don’t have (Krampus saying he has a flying sleigh in order to impress me).

Does anti-consent with a particular person trump consent with that person’s alter-ego, though? Like, if my husband was Mitt Romney in disguise (guuuuhhhh), would all the times we had sex be rape because I would have not consented with the knowledge that he was Mitt Romney?

Good point, but if we sub out the variables with the objects in question from the point of view of the victim, both X and Y are things-that-look-kinda-like-a-penis-in-the-place-where-a-penis-normally-is-and-feels-enough-like-a-penis-to-pass-muster-while-blindfolded.

I don’t think most commenters here are like that. Thanks for the vote of confidence, anyway. Trans-panic was my thought.

Sorry for taking so long to reply on these.

You could expect to be fired from your job for violating the dress code, sure.

So they delivered fetuses and kept them on life support so the organs didn’t shut down and become useless? Where’s your ethical problem with this? I’m serious. Would it be better if they removed the organs while the fetus was still in the womb? Would that make you feel better somehow?

A federal statute passed by imbeciles who conflate abortion with birth. It’s called intact dilation and extraction, because that’s what it is. It’s the safest abortion method for fetuses past a certain advanced gestational age... that is to say, the gestational age where virtually all women WANTED a baby and do NOT…

I came for the BCO and stayed for the pissy Yelp review

Yep, this is what I see when I think “tiki bar.”
