Sleeping partner (consensual) I just assumed they would wake up and it will turn into more regular sex but at some point I realized that I can basically do to them whatever I want and they just wouldn’t wake up. It made me feel like it’s rape 😖
Since then I have a rule that if they don’t wake up after a bit, I quit and go to sleep too 😅
If you are in Canada, delete this post. You’ve just confessed to rape under Canadian law. When a person falls unconscious, all sexual consent is revoked; you cannot consent to have sex while you are asleep. There have been cases where police heard about and criminalized what all participants considered to be consensual sex because of this legal principle. It does not require someone “pressing charges”, the police can do this on their own volition.
Yeah, I get that, but also fuck that. If two people consent to do something that won’t cause harm then the government, any government, can keep their grubby hands out of it.
If one of the participants decides to go rogue or off script that is another thing but if two consenting adults agree that “if I’m sleeping I’m all game” then that is what they get to do. Consent can also be revoked at any time, so if the person wakes up and says no, then that’s a no. Until then I don’t need any government in my sex life.

It’s been pretty well established that many governments don’t feel the need for consent to get involved in your sex life.
So what.
Good to know 😵
But not from canada, also I doubt Lemmy is on the radar right now 😅
