That's probably true tbh.

But I think the counter-argument would be that people on the other side of the situation should get affirmative consent, not just rely on silence as implied consent.

This. I mean, I get that asking someone before you kiss them isn't as sexy as just doing it. And I don't think you have to stop and ask at every step.

But just assuming consent when they say nothing is pretty icky and can lead to bad situations.

I'm really in favor of enthusiastic, affirmative consent. Not everything that isn't this is rape, true. But the fact that there is still a lot of assumptions about who sex is for and now assumptions that sex will always happen I think can lead to some situations that aren't good, even if they aren't rape. Like, shouldn't we all want everyone to completely enjoy themselves? Selfish sex isn't rape, but it isn't good (unless that is what your partner is into). Sex where someone just goes along with it because they think they are supposed to isn't good. Affirmative consent and compelete enjoyment by everyone should be the goal.
