hi Cactus Flower,

my point was wearing clothes, alone, isn't an excuse for a 'stranger' to attack.

there are many shades of grey when the couple know each other. and some people play head games.

'flirting' is an art, being a leach is disgusting.

I'm with you, a nun deserves extra reverence ;)

Hi clo,

I think it is wise to assume a human being isn't a robot.

You want to have a broad pathway for permitted human behaviour and have only the extreme cases have legal ramifications. Otherwise you live in a nation of lawyers patrolled by litigious "victims".

If I was a judge, and you will probably say thank goodness I am not (!), I would treat a person differently depending upon their behaviour. I'd maybe give some additional respect to a nun.

We've talked before about no means no, and whether that works in all situations. Let's say, between the moment a woman is satisfied and the man takes his turn.

Are you saying there's no such thing as provocation? Or that flirting isn't a thing? No one should forget we are animals.

In English law, provocation is an influence on the treatment of a person for murder. Manslaughter is employed where a person kills due to loss of control.

Looked at another way, sexual provocation may one day be interpreted as a form of sexual harassment.

In my view, it is unwise to think there's a universal trump power in your position.
