I would like to point out that if you want to make a point on behalf of science, you need to... you know... science. Not just say "science says ____, so you're wrong". That's a Biblethumper-tier argument. I think we can all agree that there's nothing more embarrassing than a complete layperson arguing against "the truth", but this applies to complete laypeople arguing both for and against scientific consensus.

Originally posted by jedi.Goldstein This is the sort of shit I could equally argue for or against, and convince the likes of §m£ÂgØL I was dead right either way.
Originally posted by HTS I'm not saying if "what if he straight up offered to advance careers", I'm saying what if he just asked for money and the people present felt the implication was that their careers could stagnate if they didn't pony up? There's no specific point that you decide that sex can't possibly be uncoerced, but if people later say they felt coerced it isn't automatically invalidated because they ended up consenting to whatever they claim they felt coerced to do.
Listen and believe, shitlord. Or like, at least remember it's not necessarily that anyone's lying or being weak, and there's a chance that it's all just valid and conflicting feelings about something that happened. You don't have to mean to hurt someone to end up hurting someone etc. That's how it seems from Louis' response too - he didn't necessarily think it was going to make anyone uncomfortable, but he accepts that he did.
To put this in perspective §m£ÂgØL, imagine you went out with the CEO of a publishing company for drinks after a long day of writing and spent an entire evening talking about writing and where you saw your career as a writer heading and they invited you back to their place for drinks and then asked if they could masturbate in front of you/to you.
How would you take that request? I mean I'm reasonably sure you'd say no, but just being asked would feel coercive as fuck neh? -

Originally posted by 霍比特人说中文不好 If you consent, that's the end of it.
I don't disagree, honestly. It's just... the situation itself is at least a little fucked, regardless of whether you consent. Consenting to things under pressure is different than just "consent", and the power imbalance there puts a lot of pressure on the person being propositioned to consent. It may not be a knife to her throat or a gun to a family member's head or anything, but we legally protect people from other forms of coercion in other contexts... and people are understandably morally opposed to the idea of putting undue pressure on other people in exchange for money/sex/etc. Y'know?
If he'd asked for $1000 and these women said they felt like they were being pressured to pay him to advance their careers, and they paid him, would you say "well they consented"? They may have consented, but the situation is still morally kind of fucked.
