In reply to the discussion: The Aziz Ansari thing made me realize how I had no clue how to act on a date [View all]nini
(16,672 posts)3. This part.... nails the whole thing:
"it reads more to me like a horrific date with 2 people with vastly different expectations on what was going to happen. And really, really shitty communication...not just speaking clearly what the person wanted or didn't want but also not listening. The woman wrote about her verbal cues being missed...well she was also ignoring a lot of verbal and non verbal cues being directed at her."
Great post.

IMO, problems arise as soon as sex is used for anything other than mutual enjoyment*...

I'm just kidding. I'm trying to think of when a woman would need a guy's help with her crotch

Yeah..she consented. She never made it clear, IMO, that she didn't want sex.
