“Consent culture”

This topic was created in the Miscellaneous forum by RamOfPeace on Tuesday, October 17, 2017 and has 13 replies.
I am a part of a LGBT subculture here in Northeastern USA, and came to identify myself as a demisexual and pansexual.


I have many friends who are LGBT, gender fluid, trans, and otherwise differently discriminated against individuals. I recognize their existence as human individuals and respect their rights and individuality.


However, I have an issue with an emerging trend ine would call “snowflakism”. Many festivals (sexually open playgrounds of today) offer experiences through consensual physical interaction and lack thereof is harshly regarded.


This comes back to the “Me too” tag multitudes of female, LGBT, and some male persons have been posting like a storm in the last week.


I understand sexual harassment, rape, unwanted intercourse, abuse, objectification, and other cruel mistreatment.


However some communities have been literally witch hunting consent “trespassers” who happened to joyfully hug another person or else brush shoulders with them against the recipient’s will. Because apparently ANY unwanted touch in america is now regarded as “rape”.


Are you fucking out of your damn mind?


A friend of mine was recently talking to a woman - our mutual acquaintaince - who was disagreeing with him on a sensitive topic. In order to gain leverage, she used the “you’re triggering me, stop it! Or you’ll be verbally raping me and I will have to report that” card. I have no compassion for this bullshit.


People get slaughtered and raped in 3d world countries, and 1st world snowflakes have no excuse for the twofaced “you’re triggering me!” whenever truth hurts too much or their sheltered selves feel too soft to participate in an argument that may burst their gentle bubble.

Its the coddlery of the nanny state. It has been accumulating for years now and now it has reached critical mass where every snowflake thinks he/she gets triggered over common sense rationale.


It is/will be the downfall of America if not checked. I prefer Russia nowadays anyway.

I was born and raised in Russia. People there are even more of a cruel, hearless shit than here, the only difference is they don’t hide the fact.

Don't let a very vocal minority of the social justice movement bamboozle you into thinking we conflate casual touch with sexual assault and other violent behavior. The literature does not, the movement does not.
I’ve seen muggles (a majority) do same shit back when I chose to associate with them. Everybody does this because -they can- and there’s no retribution. There IS retribution for touching someone, even by accident, without their consent. A very legal one. So people use and abuse it til no end.

The only difference in LGBT world is open discrimination.

That's not really the answer to what i wrote. The tough will survive while the coddled snowflakes will wither away.

You can thank the rich, white cunt guys in San Francisco for turning "rape" into any sort of unwanted touch.


For that, they can go fuck off and die. It really irritates me when people fuck up something so serious for their snowflake feelings.


Rape is forcible, non consensual sex. Not shoulder brushing. Not touching the elbow. It's not the world's fault you have fucking autism about other people touching you. Go take some damned meds and quit ruining an already fucked societal attitude towards rape. Kthx.


Most of these whiny asshats are nothing but sheltered rich kids who want to continue to force the world to cater to their sheltered, ignorant, and naive status.

It submits to the larger problem of misinformation and the inability to properly speak about abuse and assault.


It's frustrating. But it's just the beginning of change so it will take society time to adjust. With every movement towards change there are people who aim to manipulate a hot topic in defense of their personal agenda. While it's a bit of an extreme metaphor, think of all the social movements where peaceful protesters are blamed for riots or looting caused by others not involved. People are opportunistic.


Simply addressing how such a statement as 'verbally raping' is asinine and selfishly detracts and devalues people who've experienced the trauma is normally enough.


With time that will likely dissipate.
Your passive "oh well," view is disturbing. Shit like this has been gaining momentum and assholes like this ARE getting their way.


Cali just changed a law where people who knowingly spread HIV would get a felony charge. It was changed to misdemeanor because the guy pushing that shit was a "bug chaser" or whatever they are that get off on spreading STDs knowingly.


Hell, teachers can't even touch kids in any way, shape, or form because of the litany of lawsuits and potential for false accusations. It's already happened in schools and now these dicks are taking it to the general public and you don't think it won't be an issue?


"Oh well, it'll go away" is the worst, most ignorant thing you can do about this.


These whiners need a couple of high fives to the face.

I say the same thing about actual feminism.


Always a bunch of asshats ruining a good thing for everyone else.


Push them off a cliff and be done with it haha.

Just do what humans have been doing for hundreds of years. Buy more alcohol to help you forget the world is in a constant state of burning.

i think its crazy that women are equating sexual harassment to sexual assault


there's layers to this shit
Tell that to LittleFairy.

Going back to the #metoo tag, a good 35% if not more of those posters equate being inappropriately touched to same as being unwillingly fucked in the ass until it’s bloody.


That’s why I find this new “awareness” trend attention seeking and disgusting as a whole. It mutes actual people who were unfortunate between all the twats with unstable mental status, who wish to be noticed and pitied by their own kind.
