I personally find it pretty unsexy if a guy has to require verbal consent before kissing me or escalating. I understand why they have to do it but for me personally it's a turnoff and signals an inability to read my body language/lack of social skills.

I'm glad you have a strong sense of self to be able to say no. I hope no man ever disregards your "No." But please understand many people don't have that voice. And if the unwanted contact (kissing/groping/etc.) has already happened before you can say "No." it's still assault.

I have had patients whose experiences with trauma steal their voice. Some freeze just when a man touches them. Moving, let alone speaking out, become impossible. You can describe your preferences with an established partner. But "implied consent" shouldn't be the default model.
