That's the problem with consent.  If it's implied, its existence or lack thereof is up to the one doing the inferring.  Consent can be said to exist until it is removed, or it can be said to not exist until it is expressely given.  I challenge anyone to say they have never had a sexual encounter where the former was the condition.

It appears that, in this case, the removal of consent was successful in curtailing the activity.  That really should do it.

(Generally speaking.  That would be except for the flashing that MH mentions in another thread.  I think that's against the law)


As a general rule, flashing penises is a bad idea, I don't know why men think this is a good thing but I'm guessing it's the same mindset spurring on the dick pic phenomenon these days.

As I said on the other thread, I don't think what Brown did warrants his resignation, but it was his own party's doing (see below).

My guess is that there is more where that came from and they didn't want to risk it four months before an election.

The Globe has learned from multiple party sources that caucus members held two conference calls just before midnight Wednesday and demanded that Mr. Brown resign. He agreed to the request on the call. At 1:30 am he released a statement.
