Hey, you're the guy who argued that consent isn't important the other day and then deleted your posts when you got pushback, remember that? You said coercion is fine

I'm upset that signs like this need to be posted. I've only been to one comicon and took shitloads of unconsented pictures, because I was suffering from hella anxiety and would never have worked up the nerve, and because if I asked everyone I'd have been asking all day. Roadhog+junkyard? Photo. Amazing Link costume? Photo. Green Ranger hanging out of a delorean? Hell yes Photo.

Nothing creepy though. I went out of my way to not point my camera at anyone dressed even remotely sexy, because I dont need the hassle. I also dont need the creepshots. I have the Internet. We have access to more porn than can possibly be consumed in a hundred lifetimes. Im not about to go stealing apples when I live in an orchard.

Thought-provoking in any way.

Pants and pockets. For men a combo, for women a choice.

The amount of horny that goes into a Comicon (regardless of gender and orientation) is through the roof, so I 100% get that sign.

And here's the thing, consent is sexy-- people can and very much do hook up at these things! Just don't be a fucking creep about it.

While it really shouldn't have to be spelled out, I still appreciate that they did.

I understand with them, but you need to demand to take a picture of them too? Is that not the whole reason they are there in the public space with their outfit? To show it?

I mean, one could be forgiven if they thought they were at a strip club. But still, groping strippers without consent is a no no as well.

What I've learned from the comment section of this post: dont go anywhere or do things at all for any reason
