My dude, you set up the strawman argument of speech in a conversation about sexual consent. They were just trying to explain how they're not the same thing.
No. I reacted to someone claiming that hearing about sex needs the hearing parties consent, the same as sex needs consent which I don't agree with.
Talking about sex needs to be done with some caution to not upset others, like many other topics. It's different from the consent needed for engaging in sexual activities with someone.
This is literally what I'm saying. Upsetting others means you are violating their emotional boundaries. If they do not consent to the interaction, then they might get mad.
It's literally so easy to say, "hey, I'm going to bring up an adult topic, anyone uncomfortable with that?" And then if anyone says yes, say nevermind. its so easy and you all bellyaching like its a hike up a mountain is WEIRD.
That's not the issue and you are failing to understand that. I agree with you. But the first comment said that that is the same form and level of consent needed that is needed for sex and that's just not true.
