Held down and sexually assaulted.

Well, that sure sounds like consenting sex to me. No wonder you’re jumping to that conclusion Hoin.

Apparently it actually needs to be said that people can revoke consent at any time. If this concept is too complex for you, save us all some trauma and stick to your hand, thanks.

I hope this doesn’t become a habit by gay men, running off to the police crying sexual assault every time they have an encounter they don’t like. This sort of mentality has turned dating and casual sex into a minefield in the straight community, the last thing we want is for this type of politically correct crap to spread to the gay community.

This is incredibly alarming. I think there is a high level of ‘trust’ in sex venues and since they generally are quite dark, when you get in a bad situation (has happened twice to me albeit these incidents were ten years apart) it’s quite frightening. I really hope they’re able to catch these two guys before they strike again as sex venues should be a place where men feel safe and comfortable at all times.
