so that the roofie drops into your own drink. Drink it immediately so that you pass out and don't rape anyone.

How uniquely clever!

Much easier for me to remember.

Get consent, and only ask one time, then forget about it. Getting a yes on the fifth try is not getting consent!

And not be grumpy if a partner says no because there's no obligation to say yes.

But that's starting to be a lot of things to remember, so back to my hermit life. 🙃

Sorry for being picky. I have known guys who feel as long as they get a “yes,” that is consent. They will use guilt or anything else they can, but it not consent, no matter what they think. There are some real assholes out there.

I hope you have a lovely day/evening.

It doesn't mean "maybe," it doesn't mean "if you force yourself on me, then OK," it freaking means NO!

Guys have to listen to women.

If a woman told me "no!" that was it. I knew I had reached a line she didn't want me to cross.

Above all, women are human beings, not play toys for a man's amusement.

I don't see how this is so difficult for men to understand.

Back then, if a woman wanted to have sex - or even just a swell old 2nd base or 3rd base sort of time, but didn't want to be thought of as being too loose, she used to flirt and tease until she got the situation to where she wanted.
It was a dance. Unfortunately, later, the game got really twisted and an increasing number of man-boys could't be trusted.
Sucks, but man-boys who can't respect or think of anything but their (honk-honk) are pretty much responsible for the death of flirting and mutual fun.

Of that there's no doubt. There were "incels" back in my day, but they didn't form a political movement and demand sex frm women. Eventually most all of them found someone. We live in an "I want it NOW" society, I guess. I see it every day.

and has nothing to lose by ripping your balls off.

workshop, seminar, webinar, church group, discussion group, CEU class, informal class, counselor, therapist, friend, or some-damned-body who can teach about the word "NO."

Very powerful!

I think I read this on DU 20 years ago!

Thank you, JohnnyRingo

I'm so embarrassed for my gender and continue to be fearful for the women of the world.

If you have power over a woman, don't tell her that her school grade or job or promotion are dependent on her letting you rape her.

Avoid men who are marginal media celebrities who feel they can molest you because when you are a star they let you do it, you can do anything, grab 'em by the pu**y.

I just assume these people are pedophiles and rapists.

Thank you for posting this

If you see a woman alone in a dark parking garage, spray yourself in the face. Your gasps and coughs should create enough commotion to alert the woman as well as any bear or confidential FBI informant she is intending to meet.

Reminded me of Mike Johnson and his son.
