(Anonymous) 2014-07-14 04:31 am (UTC)(link)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.
