It is never to late for a woman or man to say no. Denying a human being this right is completely animalistic and wrong. The victim should never be held responsible or feel at fault no matter what the circumstances were.
By signing this petition you are pledging to raise awareness of date rape in the United States; realizing that every human being has the right to say no.

This is disgusting. People need to learn how to respect boundaries and stop blaming victims for stuff they didnt do.
So many people get away with this and it makes me sick. Glad to see people standing up.
ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS that this is still something we have to fight for in this day and age. stop the victim blaming.
Never ever okay. No means no regardless of anything else.
thank you for speaking up about this. it needs to be talked about more.

Consent is everything. Why is this so hard for some people to understand?
