Open and honest would be asking for dates and saying I’m interested in you. Along with the usual flirting and excessive eye contact and smiling.
Networking/mentoring is a bullshit predatory false pretense. Why would he be expecting consensual sex when they haven’t even dated?
Especially considering the age gap. Somebody forgot the wine and dine stage. You can always tell when a pair is about to start a relationship because there is all sorts of flirting and looking and leaning into each other.

Such is a pretty common occurrence.
Yes, the body language you mention is very common. Lots of people understand it intuitively, others do not. A fair amount is cultural and is learned.
Promiscuity is also common, and lots of people want sex without much of a relationship, probably more men than women, but that seems to be changing as well.
I appreciate your insight and comments. Please continue.
