just read a piece saying that for young teenager girls, saying no to an older man is just part of the toolbox, the most universal "rite of passage" towards adulthood:

a day ago a girl which i was dating was so surprised that i was kind. she indeed either got harassed, spied on, bullied or raped by all of her male partners.
(another one had a loaded gun pointed at her face because the boyfriend was jealous. oh no wait, three of my partners almost got killed.)
in fact 100% of my female partners and 99% of my female friends got raped at least once (many male ones too, but less). not even talking of such "offering", it's just "normal" for most. a statistical quirk, i doubt it.
perhaps sexual education of male fellows might be important? and when i say male i talk for myself too, as a bisexual 50% of intercourses i had with ppl of my gender had at least one non-consensual element done to me. the line is blurry sometimes but the problem is well there.
i tend to think there some kind of cultural issue there: every ad targeting men tries to explain them how many young girls they will f** if they buy the product.
reminds me my former roommate brought a box of actual sugar, guess the branding: Daddy
- whimsicalism 5y agohonestly, i think it is about moral education more than sexual education. i think schools do need to get over being afraid of sex and need to present realistic depictions of sexual encounters with consent. there's a solid percentage of people, but particularly men, who just do not care about the impact their actions have on others.

I have a hard time believing that men are harassing, raping, and armed assaulting because they missed that day in class. It would be interesting to see if either a VC-backed Yelp for People or China's social credit system has an effect on sex-related crimes.
