There's no context here. In some circumstances that could be normal (like if they had sex and did similar things before). It he did it out of nowhere, Louis C.K. style, that's sexual assault be from this one quote it's now clear how/when it happened.
Remember when some women accused Aziz Ansari of "sexual misconduct" and then described a typical hookup during which she told Aziz to stop and he did? Not all allegations are about rape. For now we know Leto is into young girls and weird stuff. That's it.
The context is "suddenly".
Doesn't sound anything like Aziz Ansari's bad date that was overblown.
Yet you are trying to over blow it. "Suddenly" only means "unexpectedly". It doesn't say anything about consent. I can "suddenly" kiss my girlfriend for example. Would that be bad? What about suddenly kissing a stranger? See? Context.
An unexpected kiss is a far cry from unexpected genitalia. Are you trying to equate "sudden tacos" to "sudden penis" just because of the word sudden? Of course not. Cmon, use some common sense.
Also, this isn't out of character for him based on the many stories he's already had come out.
Of course but you claimed that "suddenly" is all the context we need. Which was wrong. Clearly you realize it so now you're trying to add more context while accusing me of lacking common sense.
To be clear, I'm not saying Leto didn't do anything illegal. I'm saying so far we don't know. Most likely after this article more women will come forward and we will soon learn about something. Until that happens let's just stick to reporting facts.
You're the one that brought up "unexpectedly". This is on you, buddy. You're not arguing in good faith, so whatever next smarmy thing you say will be the last word. Enjoy.
Didn't you write this? You're either very confused or trolling. Doesn't really matter. You're right, either way it doesn't make sense to keep talking.
No. You need consent every time. This is why women choose the bear. Suddenly kissing someone is sexual assault and should result in castration.
Unless your cute and then it’s romantic
OMG, I'm sexually assaulting my girlfriend on a daily basis. I better report myself to the police.
You're insane.
If you have not established consent, yes, you are, and you should stop doing that.
You really believe that after years of living together I have to "establish consent" before I kiss her? That's a very sad reality you live in.
Your gross
"you're"
