I think part of the issue with consent and open discussion about boundaries not being seen as sexy by some is that it totally disrupts the power dynamic where the man is in control, without question. I really appreciated hearing from you and others how learning to negotiate boundaries professionally has helped you do it personally as well.
I find it really ironic that the spheres that much of the vanilla world find to be immoral (kink, poly, sex work, etc.) are actually much more forward-thinking about consent, communication, and respect than they are.
