Maybe I am becoming too much of a boomer or something, but I feel like some zoomer women just expect men to automatically know whenever they're uncomfortable and automatically know when to stop. Girls, you have got to be assertive. It's OKAY to say no.
Disclaimers: Obviously there are situations where she won't for fear of retribution/violence and that's different. I am talking about situations where she can say no, but doesn't, continues to be uncomfortable and only says something much much later, accusing him of harassment.
I feel like I am seeing this more and more and it seems like young people have a very weird idea of what sexual harassment looks like. Personally, I think it's okay if someone approaches you, but as soon as you make it clear you're not interested, they should back off.
It feels like with a lot of gen Z, the standard has changed to being that any very sexual flirting is sexual harassment if the woman wasn't comfortable, even if she didn't say anything about this discomfort.
This is something I think most young women need to know, you DON'T have to be meek and polite if someone is making you uncomfortable. You DON'T have to be silent. You SHOULD tell someone if they're making you uncomfortable, especially online where they can't c your body language
