I Am Going to Dropkick the Next Dudebro Who Tells Me Coercive Sex is Consensual Sex

There's a problem: in almost everything outside of sex, people say to not give up when refused, and just keep trying. Especially in any sales oriented job. So it sorta makes sense that most men would assume the logic applies to sex too. Even romantic stories often have men continue to pursue a woman after being turned down once.

To get men to respect the word "no" in the bedroom we need to teach respect for the word in other places too. It would help a lot if people simply got taught to respect others in general. There is very little respect for anyone in America.
