N.C. law: Woman can't back out of sex once underway

quote [ Aaliyah Palmer was at a party when a man pulled her into a bathroom for sex.

She was willing.

But, she told Fayetteville police, when the sex turned violent, she told the man to stop. He didn’t listen. ]

Why do people have to make it so damn difficult!?!

You can change your mind about watching a fucking movie, why would sex be any different? Oh do grow up over there!

Jackson is the sponsor of Senate Bill 553, which would criminalize the failure to stop intercourse when a woman who had originally consented changed her mind. As the end of the current General Assembly session draws near, the bill is stopped in the Senate’s Rules Committee. He said it will probably be dead for the rest of the two-year legislative session.

“There’s no reason for this to be partisan,” Jackson said. “It’s about doing what’s obviously right.”


But I guess for some reason it is partisan. Too bad this article doesn't identify which legislators specifically are responsible for holding up this bill, just so we know who in the NC Assembly happens to be pro-rape.

My guess is the men.

Since there was some mention of partisanship, I'd venture it's Republican men.
But really I'd like to see some specific names.

Ok it may not be sexual assault...but it is still criminal assault. I gave consent to sex, not a beating.

Does foreplay count? And why wouldn't it be sexual assault? That's like asking someone to murder you and then not charge him for murder because you, the victim, wanted and paid for it.

Jeff Jackson should pay a visit to the home of one of the opponents of Bill 553 for a chat. Then refuse to leave when asked. The ensuing high jinks may prove illuminating.
