As much as we would like to believe otherwise, verbalized consent does not exist in a majority of situations, particularly freshman-year-of-college, just-exploring-sex situations.

The "hand-wringing" reads like a direct result of him being personally involved with her. This gives him the ability to replay things in his mind and try to dissect to figure out where the hell this is coming from. And in this day and age, it's not unlikely that his thought was "I have to address that I lived near…
I'm incredibly confused by this article. If I were accused of a heinous crime that I didn't commit, there's no way in hell that I would be able to use my fame/voice as a platform to open up a useful dialogue. And if I didn't do it, I would absolutely be trying to figure out if something had been misconstrued rather…
It's super impressive that, as this man's doctor, in possession of all his medical history and records, you had time to come post here. Can you look at this thing on my leg and tell me if it's infected? I'll send a picture.
Dressing like a character is cosplay. Period. You don't have to move like a character, you don't have to sound like a character, you just have to dress like a character, and that is, by definition, cosplay.
"Uses him as a man taxi." Just... bravo.
As much as I am not in favor of this guy's argument, can we dispense with the "all virgins are losers and terrible at sex!!!!" stuff?
Sex inside marriage is also potentially harmful. Just... throwing that out there.
A basic public necessity like not having a gun pointed at you in your own home?
Is that your way of saying "I can't deal with anything beyond Dick and Jane"? He's got a point— if you think, in any way, that it's okay for SWAT teams to knock down your door and storm your house based on an anonymous call with zero information gathering or fact-finding, that's extraordinarily sad.
It hurts me on the level of knowing there are dudes out there who think that women don't have it harder in the world as a whole, and it hurts me knowing there are dudes out there who legitimately think that women have an easier time dating because... I'm not really sure why men think this? It's hard for everyone. …
So the numbers of women who are sexually assaulted are a myth, but men drawing the short stick in dating is a fact? Even though there's literally no way you can prove that men have it harder than women when it come to dating, you're just gonna toss it out there as hard fact, huh??
*eyeroll*
I'm actually a woman who frequently, loudly and probably obnoxiously reminds people that men are victims of sexual assault, too, because I have a real problem with broad-brush painting men as potential predators. However, rape isn't exactly a comparable problem to dating issues, and let's say it were— your comparison…
I wish it did evaporate in adulthood, but I've had adult men get testy because I asked first. Well. "Adult" men.
So wait, you think it's okay to prefer a certain body type based on weight, but not okay to prefer a certain body type based on height? That's what I'm getting there, hence my disbelief. And there should be other factors to attraction. I'm not saying you can't be attracted to someone thinner or taller, but being…
Yup, yup, yup. Back when I was trying the online dating thing, I met a guy who had a great sense of humor, very funny, lots of witty messages and banter back and forth. After several days of this, I broached the subject of meeting up in person, and he expressed discomfort and annoyance that I'd taken that step. …
Holy balls.
You do realize it's still illegal to watch a 15-year-old having sex, right? Even if it's not pedophilia.
But once you start sending a video of an underaged girl to people, it then could conceivably end up in the hands of dudes who are into underaged girls, something that is clearly illegal. "But *I'm* not a child molester" isn't much of a defense.
