> [@Otara](#): > > Recording sexual encounters as an initial solution does suggest a fairly unusual amount of concern over the issue. Of course it does; men as a group are irrational about women, foolhardy. Women _depend_ on men being irrational about them; if men were rational, under our present system they’d treat women (and children for that matter) like they were radioactive and never get within ten feet of them. > [@DianaG](#): > > It’s a violation of trust, and it’s sleazy. How typical of these sorts of arguments that all the trust is supposed to be one way. And a man daring to defend himself is “sleazy”. > [@DianaG](#): > > Any particular reason you didn’t answer my question? > > Maybe if I try louder? > > WHY NOT **TELL HER** YOU’RE PLANNING TO TAPE YOUR SEX? > > If you do that, you not only eliminate the risk, but prove yourself trustworthy as well. And how many women would agree to have sex under those conditions? Women, as you are demonstrating, hate to admit that men have any reason to fear false accusations and take even the implication that such things are possible as an insult. They demand that men either be self destructively trusting towards them, or that men lie to them, or that men be celibate. You are (knowingly I’m sure) proposing a “solution” that simply won’t work because the women wouldn’t go along with it, ever. You are demanding that men be irrational and ignore our grossly slanted “justice” system, the real way that women act towards such requests, or both. > [@JThunder](#): > > Apparently, their answer is “Because then she might say no.” No. Would say no, always. It’s not like she cares about _his_ problems after all; or even wants to admit they exist. As threads like this help demonstrate. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-do-you-think-about-recording-sex-sessions/567602)._
