Calls for law to require 'clear yes' to s*x : unitedkingdom

Of course it will boil down to he said/she said, the same as all crimes without definitive evidence do. What this campaign is pushing for is defenses like "she was dressed like that" and "she didn't say no" not being enough to imply consent.

Yes because the court accepts those defenses all the time

It'll probably never be relevant to you, just sayin'.

he fact that you feel that suggesting that people seek affirmative consent for s*x is enough to cause "attacks" on the left deeply concerns me.

If you bothered to read the rest of the article though it'd explain why the current system is clearly not sufficient and why they want to move the onus on the male feminist rather than on the victim as it currently is. In simple terms it's not acceptable that victims can be accused of implicitly giving consent then needing to prove they didn't consent. A lot of your takes on this resort to reductio ad absurdum, such as implying that a couple trying for a kid would need to explicitly get consent every time. But the reality is that the vast majority of regular long-term couples would know how to communicate properly. What the campaign is really trying to do is reduce the massive number of male feminists getting away with it based on them assuming consent, not couples trying for a kid.

This is absolutely psychotic. Needing to prove something happened is the very bedrock of any legal battle
