One of the most successful comics invited you to hangout. Then asks you if he can jerk off in front of you. it’s not acceptable. That ignores his coworker who who has the same story as the young comics. He took advantage of his position. He’s not Weinstein but nor is he a good guy in this. He wasn't THAT successful at the time, but regardless, are you saying if you're successful in your field you can't proposition women in the same field?

Remember that time the guy who could blink and give you your dream asked to jerk off in front of you? It’s not like C.K. is a guy who wouldn’t know when one situation is ok and the other is not.

So, she wouldn't feel pressured to agree to dinner when he asked but would feel pressured to be asked about giving himself a tug? This is the worst argument I've seen ever made on the subject of whoever Louis CK is (I know he's a comedian but don't care one bit who he is...) Btw. Apologizing or walking it back is standard procedure. If he remained quiet he would be ripped apart. Just once I'd love these guys to grow some balls an tell the media to !@#$ off.

First off: On any given day of the week I literally text a string of random girls I have on the hook "hey, want to come over and bang?" It's rare for me to ask them to dinner. So, that may help. The other aspect of note is no, I don't see a difference. And I don't know why it's wrong to ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just see a guy throwing his client under the bus for propositioning women to engage in what appears to be a consensual encounter. I think conflating this with people who actually force themselves on women or pressure them into quid pro quo situations is destructive. I really don't see a meaningful distinction between asking a girl if she wants to !@#$ and asking her if she wants to watch you jerk off. The only difference is that the latter seems weird, but to each his own. 13 hours ago, BeginnersMind said: "Hi, want to go to dinner on Friday?" vs. "Hi, do you mind if I masturbate while you watch?" Do see those as the same? I don't. Most don't. But maybe you have different sexual standards. Just because they're not the same doesn't make one inherently wrong. If you're having drinks with a girl and ask her if she'd like to see your satin sheets it's quite a bit different from asking her if she'd like to go on a picnic, but it doesn't make it wrong outside of puritanical circles.

Yeah, it's still problematic when you're encouraging the idea that "I'm not responsible for making bad decisions while I'm drunk." Sure, it seems fine applying it to sexual consent. But now let's extrapolate that to DWI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
