Why do men not understand consent?

Saw a post recently and frm my personal experience,i hv seen men not understanding consent. They believe once u say yes ,it means yes in all situations,circumstances whatsoever and whenever.

•During makeout, if i say yes,i only imply yes to making out and not penetrative sex. There's a difference. Just bcz i said yes to making out doesnt mean i am ok for sex.

•This applies in situations too! If i said yes yesterday, that yes doesnt apply anymore today or tomorrow.

•If someone is persuing me for something which i dont hv interest in,but eventually give in..thats not consent its 'COERCION!' This is the most common thing that happens in unhealthy realtionships where even the girl doesnt know.

•Variations of NO- 1. NO-Means a strict no

  1. Silent- Means no

  2. Being threatened,coerced-Means no

ONLY A STRICT YES MEANS YES

(Ask ur partner everytime for consent. Applies for both genders!)
