This reminds me of that tweet that said; "You don’t have to lie to women when they like you because they’ll lie to themselves." Because that’s exactly what this is. A coping mechanism and what women say when they’ve already decided to stay so they need the story to make sense.
Consent is FREELY given. It’s not coerced, it’s not manipulated, it’s not pressured, it is not deceived. It is FREELY given! It can withdrawn at any point btw.
