Why are people not protesting ? Businesses should stop buying Microsoft licenses and that should force Microsoft to remove bill gates completely from the company. Same should be done with Musk, trump etc.

    So you’re saying, that if a woman of sound mind and body, chooses to consent to having sex with a billionaire for money that it’s still wrong because the billionaire has more money and power.

    Even though she could say no? Even if it was of her own volition, that it’s still wrong?

    To me it sounds like you are assuming that women can’t make their own choices.

      a lot of them did say no years after the fact but I have a feeling you’re the type of person who wouldn’t understand that consent works like this

      i have similar thoughts and to me it’s really just about the balance of power. It could just as easily be a billionaire woman and a working man. I think in any kind of relationship (the broad term, not the dating term) each person needs to be accountable to each other. Good outcomes can still happen when somebody is unaccountable, but there is massive risk. And I go by the motto that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. If somebody has a lot of power, they will use it for evil. One goal of society should be to make that impossible.

      Hell, let’s take that line of reasoning a bit further

      On average, men are significantly stronger than women so there’s a power imbalance there too. That would mean that on average, heterosexual relationships are non-consensual
