It might be easy to blame her for continuing on the date even though she was confused and turned off, but we live in a society in which women question themselves and their gut feelings a lot, especially when it comes to dating/relationships. She mentions in the story that, at the moment, she justified the reception of…

Haven't you read any of the news stories of men killing women that reject them?

I deleted my sarcastic comment because it made me realize that I was talking about a disturbing topic in which Dodai was the subject, and that made me feel really shitty.

She answered that question. She also showed opposition to the dick pic in no unclear terms ("I do not like this thing you did, but I'm overlooking it and hoping we'll have a nice time the rest of the date" is only logically inconsistent if you have a three year old's tolerance for complexity). And how the hell do you…

Notice how she cut the date short, didn't go out for another date, and told him when he got back from the restroom that it was inappropriate? That's not "permission by acceptance".

Wait, what? You can't control someone else texting you a dick pic. And she laid out her personal reasons why she continued the date. Did you not read the article?

Hear hear! I posit her sheer existence is implied consent to that digital greeting!

Well, that's fucked up. You're right, it does give off a creepy flasher vibe, and I don't understand what would possess him to do that. You're definitely doing the right thing by passing him up.

That isn't the bigger question.

Are you being sarcastic? You're definitely being sarcastic, right?

Thank god My Real Name is here to provide the MRA pov, we just don't get enough of that.

Maybe if Kinja had to donate $5 for every one of these scam posts, it would encourage the developers to solve the problem once and for all.

No wonder I've had a crush on Brendon Urie since I was 16...

Wow, what awful people. I feel sorry for the cat.

Eh...I've seen jokes on articles about violence against women here, too. There are always people who make light of terrible situations, no matter what those situations are.

Very convincing argument, for sure.

Half the comments I'm seeing have to do with hoping the guy makes a full recovery. What the FUCK are you on about?

Do you actually have an argument or you're the 'women are always wrong' type and are just gonna say that?

I'm usually in agreement with Patricia when she posts about sexual issues in gaming. But this...was an uncomfortable read. She brings up an uncomfortable and honestly scary topic about consent and how we all may have made horrible mistakes in the past, but (and I usually find this excuse is bullshit) I do feel like it…
