I guarantee you every cis-hetero man you know has, at some point, not gotten good consent from a woman (or worse) for a sexual act
This is not a thread to point fingers or vilify men. This is a thread to talk about what we actually mean by "rape culture."

A small word about these “starter witch kits” that Sephora is going to be selling this fall (just in time for the saison de la sorcière, no less)

Mr Darcy: I have a total boner for you in spite of your gauche, plebeian family
Mr Darcy: and will stoop to marry you
Lizzie Bennet: wow cool, I feel so flattered
Mr Darcy: oh I’m so SORRY that my PERSONAL TRUTHS are hard for you, pardon ME for being a man who has FEELINGS
Mr Darcy: your mother makes my skin crawl w/2nd hand embarrassment
Mr Darcy: and your sister is frankly not good enough to marry my friend
Lizzie Bennet: you’re a dick
Mr Darcy: wow I thought you were into radical vulnerability and the honest sharing of feelings, but I guess not!
Mr Darcy: here, I wrote you a letter explaining everything
Lizzie, squinting: this letter just reiterates how disgusted you are by everyone in my family except me and Jane?
Mr Darcy: keep reading, because I’m about to talk some big shit about the man you love
