    Should be able to ask a question without being sexually assaulted though, right? Bro tried to kiss that little boy.

      “Little boy” (dude looks early 20s) started asking for information about his sexuality and sex life on the street while filming him. He’s lucky he didn’t get his ass kicked, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he was fishing for content like that (or at least someone getting offended by it).

      Not aware of any jurisdiction where attempting to kiss someone and stopping immediately when they say no is sexual assault, but maybe you can enlighten me.

        It’s at least sexual harassment. And yes, the age difference here looks like the interviewee trying to kiss a little boy.

          Why are you so intent on insisting that what seems to be an adult man is actually a little boy? Kinda weird.

          Also weird to say that’s sexual harassment but not going up to strangers and filming them while questioning them about the details of how they have sex.

            Why are you so intent on focusing on the age rather than the sexual harassment?

          I think there’s probably a reason you believe a queer black man is guilty of sexual assault for doing something that isn’t sexual assault in any jurisdiction, but maybe you can show me evidence of somewhere the law considers that sexual assault?

            I think you’re reaching since I didn’t even say that specifically. I said it was aggressive because it was. Period. You don’t think it is, fine; your opinion

              [answer]

              So no, then

              If you didn’t want people to read that as you saying he sexually assaulted someone then you wrote your reply in the most confusing way possible 🤷‍♂️

      That wasn’t sexual assault. If you want a lesson to take away for what he actually did wrong here: he attacked the reason for rejection. It’s a natural thing to do. But that’s really the only thing wrong here.

      Going in for a peck is fine. Planting one before they react wouldn’t be. But taking rejection gracefully is nearly impossible. Let’s try to be better.

          It was just a dude answering questions he was asked. I don’t want to hang out with the guy.

          I get a little worried about calling something like that “sexual assault”. It plays into the “can’t say anything anymore” crowd’s hands.

            It was just a guy answering questions until he grabbed him and went for a kiss, don’t pretend that didn’t happen.

            Yeah I agree he came on strong but it seems that’s his vibe in the scene and he was mostly respectful when rejected. i think some people’s biases are showing

            If the victim was a woman I think any decent person would see it. Instead since he’s a man, somehow he’s expected not to be intimidated. I absolutely would’ve been
