I couldn’t follow much from news outlets out of Canada.

Rotten Mango takes us through the deep dive. I think anyone with even a passing interest in Hockey, should give this a watch. But, just as the video warns, for those of you who cannot handle topics of sexual assault, please take care and stay safe.

EDIT: Here’s part one.

    I didnt watch the video (2 hours? No thanks) but I think the judge made it clear that the primary witness gave unreliable and untrustworthy testimony which really sank her credibility in this case.

    It hit peak head shaking wonder when the Crown prosecutor argued that just because she was sucking on a guy’s johnson doesnt mean she was consenting to other sex acts? Specifically “You cannot treat that as a communication of consent to any other sexual act.” Which means, in that lawyer’s world, one must ask consent to every individual act.

    Does that include changing positions good sir? “Uh, just because I did doggy style doesnt mean I consented to reverse cowgirl. How DARE you assume I consented!”

    Hmm, I get the impression these people have never actually had a sexual relationship? Probably just safer to print out a consent form for each act and then have both parties sign before each act to make it clear they were both ok with it. I heard that works /s

      ??? By your logic, if you’re ok with me sucking your dick, then tying you down and fucking your urethra is clearly ok

      So because she’s giving one guy a blow job in your mind it means she wants to get relied from behind by another guy?

      So you’re commenting on something you didn’t watch?

      Yes, engaging in any sexual act is not implied consent for every sexual act. In what world is it hard to ask if someone wants something? They’re like, right there. Source: I’m a slut.

        Yeah 2 hours of a full length feature movie with really good actors might hold my attention but two hours of a random youtuber, highly unlikely.

        As for consent, sorry, Im used to being a loving committed relationship, not one night stands with strangers while cheating on my fiance after picking up someone in a bar. I know what my wife likes and doesnt like and once the train leaves the station, we’re not pausing to get ‘informed consent’ about every little change up. But you do you. Or someone else. Whichever :)

          so wait, when you had sex with your wife for the first time, did you just start having sex with her without her saying she wanted it?

              don’t pull up and talk about consent when you won’t even tell someone if you even believe in consent in the first place.

                Of course I dont believe in consent. Its a mans world. We take what we want when we want it. That’s the way its supposed to be. /s

                C’mon man, its not your first day on the internet nor mine. You know and I know exactly where that kind of personal question leads and Im not that dumb.

                  listen, believe what you want to believe ya? When someone asks for consent, first learn what consent means and why it’s important.
