Celebrating consent? Whatever happened to celebrating keeping it in your pants?

[Viennacon]

Why?

Just why? Why does ‘consent’ need to be promoted? Are kids honestly starting to disregard consent? The much praised millennial are apparently rapey now.

Yo dawg, dat’s what bitches is fo. A man has ‘needs’, ya see what I’m sayin?

[Hegemony Cricket]

Will any be allowed to say no to this celebration of consent?

I typically go to King Richard's Faire - which is a renaissance festival in my area. It's pretty much the same every year and doesn't change much but it's one of those tradition-type things that we do anyway.

So I stumble around the grounds, alternating "yards of beer" with plastic cups of Chaucer's Mead while all sorts of zany carnival-like activities go on around me, including costumed actors charging around on horses with swords and such.

Usually I go in for a pewter beer mug for about $70 or so and I have a whole shelf in my cupboard dedicated to them. When the weather gets cooler, I like to pour my beer or cider into them and sit by the fireplace.
