I guess it's sad that it "has" or "does" become political because this should just be basic human decency?

I absolutely agree that if someone intentionally sexually violates someone is fucking awful. But I am curious as to why/how that shouldn't be a political issue? Maybe we have different idea's of politics?

I am so sorry to hear that this has happened to you. Thank you for sharing <3

i wish i had read Ben Solo's response sooner instead of getting involved with said comments

If your point is non verbal consent is enough (for you) then consider yourself heard. Just please heed my words (and the articles) when we say that the only way to make sure consent is given is to get enthusiastic verbal consent (but only if they person isn't mentally or physically compromised) And again, this episode…

I think the whole point of the episode is that all too often cis straight men manipulate women into sexual situations. And when they're called on it they just try to manipulate their way out of it. Similarly people who have done similar "sleazy" things will defend people like Chuck rather than err on the side of the…

With the article you provided you proved my point.

Actually no, it only has to be unwanted sexual contact in order to "go against consent". I'm not sure you understand what consent is maybe?

does it…..

i think this response says more about you and how you'd fit right into that episode

And I would further suggest that you think about your past "hookups" and how you "may" have pressured them, manipulated them, or took advantage of them.
Especially if you're the kind of person to hookup while drunk with other drunk people…..

Is anyone else very troubled by the majorities response to this episode?

hey buddy, So consent means you ask (without pressure) to do a thing BEFORE doing said thing and only proceeding to do said thing if the other person agrees with true enthusiasm. Some people call that "Active Consent" or "Affirmative Consent"

I really hope Insecure makes the next list. That would help me feel more secure in my t.v tastes.

huh, I wonder if the children watching this show can pick up on your condescending 'tude

pfff, if there were more flashbacks i would be fanning

omg hunny, you talk as though one being can only have one reason to be insecure and bitter ……

the gems don't know that

like several times even

hold on there, Bismuth tried to kill rose, who was in the middle of poofing/killing her for morally hipocritcal reasons
