Joe, the 'Guest Lizzie Cornish' at 06.59am is not me. So if you could remove it, I'd be very grateful. And yes, I'll send a PM too, Joe.




But 2,000 posts in that name? 2,000 posts written by the same non-Lox person, that have been allowed to remain????? I'm just really intrigued as to why all those other posts have remained, Don, that's all. I mean, surely, if it was a well known fact on Mudcat that Lox has an impersonater around then every single 'Guest Lox' message would and should be vetted almost immediately, wouldn't they?

Who knows?


Anyway, that aside, I was still pretty perturbed at that article I found yesterday about the 'verbal agreements' at every stage of sex...how romantic is that? I don't get that, I really don't.


Article on Acquaintance Rape

..and taken from there:

"..Acquaintance rape remains a controversial topic because of lack of agreement upon the definition of consent. In an attempt to clarify this definition, in 1994, Antioch College in Ohio adopted what has become an infamous policy delineating consensual sexual behavior. The primary reason this policy has stirred such an uproar is that the definition of consent is based on continuous verbal communication during intimacy. The person initiating the contact must take responsibility for obtaining the other participant's verbal consent as the level of sexual intimacy increases. This must occur with each new level. The rules also state that "If you have had a particular level of sexual intimacy before with someone, you must still ask each and every time." (The Antioch College Sexual Offense Policy, in Francis, 1996)..."
