Blond assaulted black hair twice. Even if the MC performed oral he was black out drunk and could not consent he literally thought ML was someone else. That’s not say MC was in the right for making a sexual advance and play, ML was completely sober(had a single shot) and knew better than to let things transpire as they did. He was “curious” how far things would go and let things escalate purposefully and then has the audacity to blame the MC and then assault him in turn as compensation.ML IS NOT A CHILD. He’s a grown man with an active sex life and I’m sure he knows he could have never done this to a woman in either situation without it clearly being assault but because it’s between men excuses are being made. It’s gross. And it’s disgusts me how often this genre relies on drunkenness to perpetuate sexual crimes. It feeds rape culture and significantly muddies acceptable depictions of consenting sexual intimacy. That authors keep doing this and especially female authors in this medium of constantly romanticizing toxic and dangerous behavior and glamorizing as sexy, idealistic, and desirable is at this point disturbing. It’s bad enough many men take their sexual education from video pornography, a fictional depiction of sex, and it is acknowledge for its damage. Yet, we don’t do the same for other mediums of “fictional sex” that contribute to spreading misinformation and desensitizing its audience to altering depictions of idealized love and romance. Alcohol is number ONE used drug to initiate sexual violence please remember that.
So we are chapters in and we already have sexual assault twice. Great.
