“ If you’re still struggling with consent just imagine instead of initiating sex you’re making them a cup of tea.
You say “hey, would you like a cup of tea?”
They might say “yes please that’s kind of you” and then when the tea arrives they actually don’t want the tea at all. Sure, that’s kind of annoying as you’ve gone to all the effort of making the tea, but they remain under no obligation to drink the tea.
They did want tea, now they don’t. Some people change their mind in the time it takes to boil that kettle, brew the tea and add the milk. And it’s ok for people to change their mind. And you are still not entitled to watch them drink it.”
It’s ok to not “stick to the decision”.
In case the kind of “omg I’m sorry I said yes then I change my mind I’m sorry I didn’t have the right” content that this manga have might become internalised.
ohmygod yes that example is so nice
This should be taught at schools
We were taught this in school and they used this exact example :)
Your school be teaching some good stuff
It’s great and vivid analogy, isn’t it?
Watching the video again, I also really like this bit:
“ If someone said “yes” to tea, started drinking it, and then passed out before they’d finished it, don’t keep on pouring it down their throat. Take the tea away. Make sure they are safe. Because unconscious people don’t want tea. Trust me on this.
If someone said “yes” to tea around your house last Saturday, that doesn’t mean they want you to make them tea all the time. They don’t want you to come around to their place unexpectedly and make them tea and force them to drink it going “but you wanted tea last week”, or to wake up to find you pouring tea down their throat going “but you wanted tea last night.””
Like damn yes DONT KEEP POURING TEA DOWN THEIR THROAT WHEN THEY'RE OUT OF IT!!
This is incredibly AWESOMEEEEEEEEE especially the talk about how people make assumptions to simplify things!
(They eliminate air friction and complexities all the time in physics class!)
Hope they’ll both grow in their perspectives!
This hit wayyyyyy close to home — for a person working 10+ hours a day and also some weekends *cheering out sparrow to fly freely!!*
/Me punching MC’s friend in Ch4 real damn hard for suggesting that MC’s perceived aromantic or asexual traits are “sexual anomaly”
And you don't punch MC for attacking someone twice?
I think Harada is working on expanding this story: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/tomarigi_torch/
/Me screenshotting all of Misha’s “it’s okay!!!” “You can do it!!!” to help cheer up while working towards a crazy deadline thank you Translator-san, thank you Misha!!!
When rabbit-kin turns to animal form the student uniform slips off.
When lion-kin turns to animal form the student uniform slips off.
But when hyena turns to animal form the student uniform slips off; when he turns to human form the clothes miraculously fits right back to the human body!!
Not that we wanna see that boy running away naked lol but discrepancies ya know?
* rabbit-kun, lion-kun
Gah silly autocorrects!
On page 28/29 you can see a bit of the hyena in his human form after he turns back and he clearly is naked on top. All you can see is his chest and shoulder but they are bare.
Ahhh I hope the editor regain her human sensitivity soon. Especially as you work in publishing, wouldn’t you be introduced to so many ideas expressed and become more open minded, more accepting?
The light is dim but I hope we’ll get to see human portrayal of female characters in BL~
*humane portrayal
fr its so annoying how women are portrayed in bl
You know what patrons gonna do? PATRONS GONNA PAY THEM BIG MANNNNNNNNN
We will or else
