Yesterday, serial rabble-rouser (and we mean this in a totally good way) Yomi @Akintonmide asked a question that has generated tons of conversations, flipped the table on women who are usually the passive lovers and amplified the ‘confusion’ many men face since sex and CONSENT got – for lack of better words, ‘redefined’.
Dear ladies, how do you initiate sex? Especially with someone who is not your boyfriend?

We have curated the responses, and they are very eye-opening. Read them all, then read the last entry. Maybe it’ll explain why it is more difficult for women to initiate sex.
Enjoy, share.

"Do you want to have sex?" Or some variation. I engage people how I want to be engaged. I don't want to be touched without permission…

"I want to have sex with you." If I am not in the mood to be dirty.

A kiss is a always the best way to start in my opinion. Kissing leads to a lot of things.

Tell him I want to have sex while I'm making out with him.

Honestly? There's only two ways it can go, either I make clear, straightforward advances, like kissing you or something then escalate..

Daddy, i want some candy😂. We both know what candy represents. Likewise, he'd say "daddy's got some candy for you". 😂😂
This sounds stupid ik— ProJuice Bar (@Projuice_NG) April 17, 2017
I would flirt with him via chat… or phone call. His response will determine if we take it a step further or end it immediately.

I usually just flat out say I'd like to have sex. I don't think I could be any clearer if I tried.

I get to touch him and allow him touch me. Sometimes I claim my foot aches to get him touch my leg.

The responses are endless. Check @akintonmide’s TL for more. And, read this perspective by @Chydee.
Fam, I see what you're trying to do, and while it's quite interesting/revealing, I must point out a few things. Wish there was a shorter way pic.twitter.com/wkJQZNUhkm
