   @mia @vriska i think having a basic sense of what's appropriate and what's inappropriate needs to be taught (or rather, learned). i don't need to ask my wife if i can kiss her, but i might need to ask my random fedi acquaintances if they are ok with seeing le funny sex memes.

     @lain @vriska @mia Seems that a lot of people have forgotten how to read the room too, they don't know how to read body language and socialise. More likely to make assumptions based on what their own boundaries are, and these have become very loose since the sexual liberation movement. People have a harder time telling other people that they don't want to discuss sexual topics and so suffer in silence and discomfort because they feel bad speaking up about it or maybe worry they will get ridiculed. It's weird to think that the pendulum has swung so far in the opposite way in just a generation or two. Like we have overcompensated because it wasn't something spoken about in the generation before it.
