Who benefits, man? Why write in defense of the traditional “male physical dominance over women” thing. As a feminist cisgender man, like you, I lived through the beginning of the end of such shenanigans. I didn’t and don’t like the sexual confusion in relationships. Similar to the acceptance of safe sex practices among huge numbers of today’s sexually active youth, the acceptance trend toward attaching a mutual consent requirement, before physical intimacy commences, should continue until it becomes the norm. Learning communication skills in connection with intimacy can be the difference between healthy satisfying relationships and failing relationships over time.
Maybe our society, through the evolutionary thinking of our young people, can shed the poor habit of excessive physical domination of women by men. Or, maybe we just run out of time?
