Consent by action is sometimes called “implied consent.”
“Enthusiastic consent can be expressed verbally or through nonverbal cues, such as positive body language like smiling, maintaining eye contact, and nodding” (rainn.org/articles/what-…).
@MomOfIrishTwin@Oneiorosgrip@BrassVon@RebelRae13 See:
“Affirmative consent is a knowing, voluntary, and mutual decision among all participants to engage in sexual activity. Consent can be given by words or actions… [that] create clear permission regarding willingness to engage in the sexual activity”(system.suny.edu/sexual-violenc…).
@lizawelsh77@Oneiorosgrip@NaughtUmi You claim expertise beyond the teaching power of your so-far alleged domestic violence survival experience.
Statistics allow one to see patterns that may be representative of the whole (presuming a certain widely accepted degree of significance is achieved) that anecdotes don’t.
@lizawelsh77@Oneiorosgrip@NaughtUmi Notes @TheJusticeDept: "[w]ife defendants had a lower conviction rate than husband defendants…. Of the 222 wife defendants, 70% were convicted of killing their mate. By contrast, of the 318 husband defendants, 87% were convicted of spouse murder" (bjs.gov/content/pub/pd…, p. 2).
@lizawelsh77@Oneiorosgrip@NaughtUmi@TheJusticeDept "An estimated 156 wives and 275 husbands were convicted of killing their spouse. Convicted wives were less likely than convicted husbands to be sentenced to prison, and convicted wives received shorter prison sentences than their male counterparts" (bjs.gov/content/pub/pd…, p 2).
Generally speaking, this is because we, as a society, created a specialized manager class from people who are educated to be bean counters but not educated enough to be bookkeepers, accountants, etc. This manager class isn’t educated in the craft they are managing.
They are not old masters or, necessarily, the original founding entrepreneur who did it all in the beginning. Even if it is the founding entrepreneur, there are some fields (like web design) which are too technical for the typical entrepreneur to even attempt to dabble in.

In order to address the aspects of the business in which the entrepreneur is incompetent that entrepreneur attempts to buy an expert in the field by hiring them.
@MichaelGLFlood Kind of hard to "[e]ngage men at [any] level [or] …walk the walk" when you're publically caught advocating in favor of punishing the innocent accused by tweeting that MRAs are acting against rape accusers with support from an article arguing fighting false accusations is wrong.
@MichaelGLFlood The paper that @MichaelGLFlood cites is "Sexual Violence in the ‘Manosphere’: Antifeminist Men’s Rights Discourses on Rape" by Lise Gotell and Emily Dutton and published in 2016 in the _International Journal for Crime, Justice and Social Democracy_ (xyonline.net/sites/xyonline…).
@MichaelGLFlood "In this paper, [the authors] explore the role that antifeminist men’s rights activism (MRA[]) is playing in a contemporary backlash to feminist anti‐rape activism" (xyonline.net/sites/xyonline…, p. 66).
