High school student says, hey, let's do this tonight. It's something sexual. Partner says, not tonight. Does this person in high school go, well, then I'm glad I asked? Is that their response? No. No. What is the 1 or 2-word question they're about to ask you? Why not? Look at that. Why or why not? Now, here's what's amazing about that. Every school in the country yells why or why not. But no one ever took you into the classroom and taught you that. So you've been taught by society, going back to what you said earlier, you've been taught by society that if I say no to intimacy, it will never be respected. It will be questioned. Why? Why not? If somebody says why or why not when you say no to them, your answer can simply be because I said no. I don't owe you a single reason.
