Except no?

See above. If you're not getting a clear signal of consent (and they are wide and varied), then you're shit out of luck for telling whether you're actually raping someone or not.

Some things many people think are clear signals of consent that actually aren't:
- Being in a sexual relationship with someone
- Saying no but then clearly going along with it anyway
- Being currently in a sexual encounter

These all might indicate consent in any given situation, but "might" really isn't good enough if the consequence of being wrong is accidentally raping someone.

I do all that stuff and I've never been raped. Stop pushing your retarded beliefs on me.

I'm not talking about getting raped, yanno? But reading is p. hard. I admit it was a long post.

If I don't think I've been raped, then you need to stop worrying? I'll dump your indecisive ass if you need to stop asking every stupid meaningless thing and don't fuck me already.

If I go along with it that means I gave my consent. If I said no earlier, it means I changed my mind. Please do not try to speak for me, only I decide on my own consent and I'll give it to whoever I please, however I please and whenever I please. Even if I said no before, it's my right to change my mind at any moment and turn it into a yes. It's my sexual life so mind your own business.

Oh yeah sure, absolutely. None of what you write contradicts any of what I wrote. :D

I like how you try to speak for everyone.

Of course, don't you know, you don't have a right to your own life.

That's because I'm talking about facts re: incomplete information and risks of accidental rape. I ain't telling anyone they got raped.

The calling people who use unclear signals an asshole thing? That's not factual. That's just like, my opinion, man. But the rest is pretty much the unshakable truth of our world.

:D But hey, what's logic and facts in view of your ~private sex life~, ey?

That's because that's how most people express their consent, genius. If you want to play the special snowflake, go do it somewhere where you don't piss on other people's sexual lives.

There's always a risk of accidentally raping someone, although it's usually negligible.

The less clear the signals you rely on are, the higher the risks get. This probably makes you uncomfortable, but it's a fact. Rape is a risk when you're having sex, and trying to minimise it (much like the risk of pregnancy and STI transmission) is a good idea. How safe you want to be exactly is, as always, obviously up to you.

Of course, in this case, by refusing to give clear signals, you're also helping to establish a standard that makes accidental rapes more likely, because you're giving people the experience that these signals were sufficient. That doesn't make you a rape victim, it just makes you the kind of person who causes victims of accidental rape down the line. If you're cool with that, I'm not gonna stop you. Just, you know. Own up to it.

Nice attempt at guilt-tripping people, but it would have had more effect if you had also mentioned the poor starving children in Africa.

Pro-tip: just because you see it as rape doesn't mean everyone else has to.

Pro-tip: Understand clearly expressed stance before resorting to mocking.
