4. Sexual consent

Scientific evidence
- Predatory capital profits from girls choosing violent boys

Needs more evidence
- It’s coercive discourse when someone invites you for drinks and then pretends to have sex with you
- Obsession with a man is submission to coercive discourse
- Sexual freedom does not depend on the choice or choices made (heterosexual, LGBTI…), but on whether or not that choice or choices are made freely, without coercion.
