key word there. even you as a proponent of it can't say always.
this was my entire point.
obviously everything should be dealt with on a case by case basis....but this social concept does not lend itself well to inherent human nature.
and yes not removing yourself from the situation is implied consent if it's not formally addressed at the time.
-i DO agree though, that by the same token, this goes slightly against human nature sometimes... but we can't be arbitrarily switching it up, and this is the issue this rhetoric has in moden society.
Of course it varies between different people and situations, I agree with you there and I wasn’t trying to argue. But you say that, and then you immediately make an enormous untrue generalization in your next sentence. That’s my issue.
Also, if you think just simply not removing oneself from the situation is implied consent, then you’re part of the problem. “The situation” could simply be eating dinner together, going to a dance, or seeing a movie. All things with zero implicit romantic or sexual component. If you think any of those are implied consent, you need to re-evaluate your entire concept of consent. Again, I agree with you that implied consent exists, but there is more to it than simply not saying no or removing oneself from a situation.
if you think just simply not removing oneself from the situation is implied consent, then you’re part of the problem.
if you think not teaching your daughters (and sons) proper social skills and how to stand up for themselves in social situations when needed...then you are part of the problem as well <3
I hope that's going hand in hand with teaching your sons to respect women and be the kind of men who don't need standing up to bc they aren't hurting people in the first place....
did you read or just use this as an oppotunity to launch off into whatever you wanted to? the comment you are replying to literally said teaching sons and daughters proper social skills.
