Should be interesting to see how this plays out

I think it is mainly because at the time they enjoy it - in the morning they regret it but as they have not been bought up to understand actions have consequences they decide they did not want to do it retrospectively so as to appease the guilt they feel from a repressive upbringing.

e.g. they are still acting like children.

In which case they need education. I can sort of understand being afraid if you have a large man on top of you but a small woman?

[d000hg]

no means no, even if you say it next morning?

It means that simply going along with it does not imply consent. A controversial area full of grey areas in my view.

Interesting that - from a contractor perspective even if you do not sign the contract but you turn up and do the work there is an implicit assumption you have agreed to the contract.

But stepping back a bit - if I recall the dim and distant paste where 1 night stands were a thing - generally both parties knew when going home together what the bobby moore was - mainly because you had probably spent an hour in the club swapping spit...

but I guess times do change!

Consent can turn to non-consent in the blink of an eye. It is impossible to protect yourself against that, there has to be a reasonable interpretation applied
of course, a lot of the hysteria around this is not reasonable

I've had me bum pinched in pubs and clubs by birds, had me crotch grabbed a few times. I never wanted to take any of them to court or ruin their lives

What about gays? It's unfair to condone a bird doing that, but get all shirty when a guy tries it.

In fact if you did, they could sue you for discrimination

you just look at them & say "sorry I'm straight" they tend to have a good idea who is straight anyway.

Does that work the other way around though - if they don't prevent you entering it's implied consent?

(still talking contracting here)

I believe it does - if they do not stop you and you do the work implication is contract is agreed.

I suppose though one party has always issued the contract and therefore they are 'deemed' to have accepted it as well.

bit of a grey area but pretty sure if it gets to court then there is implied consent if both parties 'worked' during the period the contract runs for.
