Does society respect male consent or is it a joke? (Page 2)

Question

When Benjamin Glaze, at the time a 19-year-old cashier from Enid, Okla., auditioned for “American Idol,” he had hoped his big moment would come as he belted out “Stadium,” a song he wrote himself. That or Nick Jonas’s 2015 single “Levels.” Instead, it came when the popstar Katy Perry, a judge on the show, surprised him by kissing him smack on the lips, moments before his audition. He had never been kissed before. “I was a tad bit uncomfortable,” Mr. Glaze said by phone this week, after the incident aired on the season premiere. His first kiss was a rite of passage he had been putting off with consideration. “I wanted to save it for my first relationship,” he said. “I wanted it to be special.” “Would I have done it if she said, ‘Would you kiss me?’ No, I would have said no,” he said. “I know a lot of guys would be like, ‘Heck yeah!’ But for me, I was raised in a conservative family and I was uncomfortable immediately. I wanted my first kiss to be special.” If the situation was reversed. Wouldn't there have been a big uproar of lack of consent and respect towards women? Also, how come as a society, we don't seem to care about male rape or sexual assault against men by women?

Prior to Harvey Weinstein, much of the American public probably thought of consent as a joke and a "yes" as a given. I pray that that situation is changing.

Because whats the worst thing a woman can do kiss touch. men rape. there is a big difference. plus men can defend themselves from a woman. women can't defend herself from a man. so society shouldn't care. they should care how to improve safety in streets at night to let women have decent lives instead of being afraid to go out and live their lives like men.

I cannot count how many times women have been OFFENDED that I say I am not interested, as if every guy always wants sex and would do anything to get it.

If an attractive woman do this, it will never be an issue, but if it is otherwise, then issues arise. Society is like that.

I just need to leave this here, however I do agree with the pain point about how society doesn't give a shit about male consent.

Does society respect male consent?  Is male consent regarded a joke?  Bot these questions are asked in the title, both questions require different answers.

society doesn't care about males they only care about what minorities want and the "privileges" that the majority has when in reality it's the minorities that have all the privilege

Why are you getting upaty about this men have been doing it for ever. I think it is great that men are getting a small taste of what women have had to put up with...

Guanfei · Answer

Society considers that male are automatically ok with it, and there is no need to ask them.

winterfox10 · Answer

Male consent is pretty much disregarded. I guess it's assumed that we are in control of situations, simply because we are the physically stronger sex.

TallGuy96 · Answer

Society sees men as a money making robot with no feelings

CaptainSmartass · Answer

It shows a complete lack of respect towards men, in my opinion. Ms. Perry should have asked if the dude was OK with being kissed. Consent and respect work both ways. Simples...
