But let’s be serious; consent isn’t complicated! And in reality, when someone wants to stop and the other person wants to continue, the burden is entirely on the person who wants to continue to make sure the other wants to as well. This myth implies that perpetrators rape people by accident; that if they only knew someone was saying no they would have stopped! It fails to acknowledge that perpetrators not only understand consent, but also choose to ignore it. They know that what they are doing is wrong 100% of the time, and choose to continue regardless.
