Read about the Aziz Anzari situation.
You mean the part where consent wasn't given in the first place? Here's the original article:

“I wasn’t really even thinking of that, I didn’t want to be engaged in that with him. But he kept asking, so I said, ‘Next time.’ And he goes, ‘Oh, you mean second date?’ and I go, ‘Oh, yeah, sure,’ and he goes, ‘Well, if I poured you another glass of wine now, would it count as our second date?’”
- wnoise 8y agoWhat you have quoted is just talking. It isn't something that needs any strong worry about consent. Read standalone, it could be anything from mutually flirtatious banter to the cringiest of escalation attempts. Read in the context of the rest of the article, it's clearly the latter. But being bad at flirting, bad at trying to get to yes is in no way a violation of consent. That said, other parts of the babe.net article do paint a much worse picture, of physically escalating both inappropriately (e.g. repeatedly putting her hand on his dick) and bizarrely (what's up with that fingers in mouth thing she described?)
- inferiorhuman 8y agoWhat you have quoted is just talking. Sure, but it's a very unambiguous example of her communicating lack of consent. One of many, yes. The Pixar debacle is even more clear cut IMO — don't insist on touching your subordinates.
