It is 2017 and I am utterly amazed that people still do not understand what consent is.
Twitter user Nafisa Ahmed eloquently breaks it down with an analogy that even kindergarteners can understand, let alone adults.
I don’t get how rape is so hard to understand for some men. But, if you put it like this, they get it:

If you ask me for $5, and I’m too drunk to say yes or no, it’s not okay to then go take $5 out of my purse… Just because I didn’t say no.

If I let YOU borrow $5, that doesn’t give the right for your FRIEND to take $5 out of my purse.

If you steal $5 and I can’t prove it in court, that does NOT mean you didn’t steal $5.

Just because I gave you $5 in the past, doesn’t mean I have to give you $5 in the future.

If you can understand alllllll of that, how do you not understand the concept of rape?
