Being coerced still counts as sexual assault because you were not comfortable with it and u were reasonably afraid of what he could do if u denied him. If you keep saying no and eventually say yes the 10th time doesn’t make it ok

Coercion is a form of rape 😔

That is not rape. If you don’t want to and he doesn’t accept a no, leave. If he is pushing a firm boundaries like that he is not worth your time. I’m sorry that happened to you but a guy being mad is better than feeling forced into sex

If you’re afraid anything bad will happen because of you saying no, that is not consent. The only reason you should ever have sex is because you fully want to. Anyone who truly cares about you will care more about your autonomy than their desires.

Not technically rape if you consented but that doesn’t mean it can’t hurt or that you’re mentally okay about it. Sorry that happened <33

Coercion is still sexual assault. Not every situation is safe to say “no” and leave from.

I recently broke up with my ex, who did a similar thing to me (but not as bad). Looking back, he did a lot that showed lack of respect for me and my choices. Only one guy ever truly respected my boundaries. We were kissing, and he got a little handsy. I made one noise, not even a word, and he immediately said “Oh wait you’re not comfortable with that?” and then stopped.

Haven’t seen that guy in years, but I’m so glad he was there to set the standards and give me something to compare men to. It probably also means I’ll die single because few men follow even this basic standard, but that is preferable to the bullshit.

Imma speak as someone who has been coerced into stuff. You are terrified in that moment and your only thoughts in your mind are on how to not get hurt. Your brain rationalizes with you it’s better to say yes because if I don’t they will just do it anyways. Often escape is not an answer, for me he was holding onto my arm and wouldn’t let go until I said yes no matter how hard I pulled away (it left bruises), for others it’s because they are scared they will get hurt more

There might not have been any physical threats like him blocking her or other things like that. The threat of the fact that there might be more harm caused is often what causes women to give in because it’s better to say yes than be forced to (you’re still being forced to). Have you ever been in a situation where you feel unsafe but you can’t leave for whatever reason. Yes or No

You are describing an imagined threat. That is not the same as there legitimately being one present. Keep in mind the op not once has disputed this or supported what you are suggesting

Same, I’ve been in situations where there is the “imaginary” threat of physical violence possible beings caused by the person, I’ve been in situations where I physically cannot leave because the person was holding me there, I’ve been in situations where I was dating the person and was scared they would leave/hurt me if I didn’t have sex with them or do things I was not comfortable with. There are so many ways sexual assault can happen and it’s not always just someone having a weapon against them
