Marriage is the only true form of full, informed, and sustainable consent because sexual interaction is inherently complex and carries significant risks.

“Marriage is consent. That's what marriage means. Marriage is full informed consent, and it's the only form of full informed consent.”

Relying solely on a minimalist consent model fails to address the grey areas of sexual interactions where harm or distress occurs without reaching the threshold of criminal activity.

“I think that the problem with basing any kind of system of sexual ethics on consent as a bare minimum is it it becomes impossible to talk about that gray space.”
