Men don’t hate the “gray area of consent” because it confuses them, they love it because it gives them plausible deniability any time they want to pressure or manipulate women into sex.

Men are perfectly fucking aware that there are situations in which women don’t feel comfortable saying no, and they go to lengths to put women in those situations *specifically* so that they can get sex if she doesn’t want to. Men have mental fucking blueprints of where that gray area starts and ends. They know what they can get away with and are constantly testing boundaries to see how far they can push.

Their outrage at broadening definitions of sexual harassment isn’t over how “confusing” and “dangerous” it is for them to date now, it’s over losing that precious excuse of ignorance and having to consider what the woman actually wants instead of what they can get away with doing to her.
