That's a dangerous question to ask. By framing it that way, you turn a clear cut matter of overstepping professional boundaries into a personal question.
- kthejoker2 9y agoKind of tautological. The thing no one wants is non-consensual behavior, which by definition is something you do not want. So yes it is personal to the extent that you own your consent.
- slavik81 9y agoSure. The question asked if you would want unwanted messages, which is certainly tautological. It's a pointless question if interpreted literally. I interpreted it more as asking people to think about how they would feel in that situation. That's dangerous, because it opens the door for people to say, "it wouldn't be that big a deal to me." That would be fine if personal feelings were relevant, but they're not. It's unacceptable for someone to treat others this way, regardless of whether they accept others treating them the same way in return.
- kthejoker2 9y agoRight, that was my point, no one can define consent for someone else.
