In her follow-up piece, she doubled down, explaining, “truly – back then, men were taught that a girl has to say no a couple times before she says yes, so no one will think she is easy.”

I remember the 70s and 80s pretty clearly. This sort of thinking was considered out-moded even then. On the contrary, this sort of thinking was derided as "how women were expected to behave" way back in the Dark Ages of the 1950s.

Which makes me think that women didn't think like this in the 80s, or the 70s, or the 60s, or the 50s ...

Progressives ALWAYS think that people in the past were stupid and totally unenlightened, whereas people of "today" are brilliant and insightful and much more aware and together. You know: millennials. They've got it all figured out.

I actually listened to the stories of my grand mother and mother, so I’m going back to 1900. And ‘no’ always meant ‘no; it was never 3 times ‘no.’ In fact, this whole ‘no’ crap is evil. Good and decent men do not rape women. Period. Rape is an act of violence and lust as is clearly different from the act of love.

Especially themselves.
