Yea it’s called consent. Not every power imbalance is inherently coercive. Society should be punished for being such prudes… they’d probably find they like it.

Not every power imbalance is coercive, but the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TALKING TO A 21 YEAR OLD STAFFER IS
In case you didn’t consider that one
Gross, dude

She’s a grown ass woman dude. This whole gen-z infantilization of 20 something year olds is ridiculous.

I love that you think it’s a generational thing.
And you call people who call out DRASTIC POWER DYNAMICS as prudes. Dude. Do you remember being 20-22? You know she JUST got the right to drink, right? Even if there was a personal interest in Bill Clinton sexually, the dynamic makes any sexual contact inappropriate while he’s her boss. Don’t tell me you think all those stories of 20-something secretaries sleeping with their boss were all consensual love affairs?

It’s suspicious when someone has strong opinions about consent laws. But not as suspicious as someone who’d white-knight fucking Bill Clinton because, wait for it, their concern for young adults being treated with respect.
That math doesn’t add up friend. Who do you think your fooling?

DNC types get super cagey when you admit that Bill Clinton is a serial adulterer who was in an extreme power imbalance relationship with a woman in her 20’s.
I’m glad the party is willingly offering him up as a sacrifice to the republicans to get keep the Epstein probe going. Every time the GOP tries a burying tactic, they truss Bill up like a suckling pig, and I’m fine with that. Dude is and was a creep.
