136. Coercion does not me agressively physically pushing yourself onto someone. It can be straight psych
Someone who continues to pressure someone else is involved with trying to coerce someone else. Continuing to ask, to attempt to manipulate someone into doing what YOU want, rather than allowing them to do what THEY want with their body, the person is attempting to gain power over someone else. Make someone else do something they don't want to.

"Plenty of women love the bad boy" goes along with "plenty of women have rape fantasies". No means no, and being "persistent" borders on, and often crosses into, coercion and involves power, control.
