y'all cute but don't you dare kiss a sleeping person... wake them up and try to kiss the monster they become after being woken up from some good sleep. if they agree, then you'll be set for life

    I agree!!!! It’s weird to kiss a sleeping person even if it’s mutual. Consent is a must!

    I don't think my boy will but guys, lemme give everyone some advice, as the OG commenter mentioned don't kiss a sleeping person (esp on the lips). One of my frnds bfs tried this shit on her and she was traumatized for months but ofc she didn't acc listen to me when I told her why she might be now feeling a disconnect w him. She'd be like 'oh what's wrong with that, he's my bf, I like him'.
    Side note: this is where I think reality and fiction inform each other and work to create a toxic cycle of assimilating ppl to be okay with being violated (e.g. many find nothing wrong with Sleeping Beauty and Snow White being a children's movie and the prince non consensually kissing a sleeping princess). Its fiction yea but I do think and studies have shown that it impacts our perceptions of trauma and sexual harassment/assault more than we can see. Oftentimes, even if we're uncomfortable with a certain event, everything in society indoctrinates to perceive it as okay.
    Anyways, back to my frnd, it took her MONTHS to finally go to a therapist about it where the therapist got to the bottom of it (traced it back to the 'incident') and figure out why she believes it shouldn't matter but her distrust towards her bf and their disconnected relationship tells her it does. Think before you touch someone in a romantic or sexual manner without permission (and this goes without saying) especially when they're in a vulnerable state and might not be able to appropriately respond to your advances (i.e. drunk, sleeping, dead etc.).
