No, I just mean to gauge the situation, the individual and evolving situation of any encounter. Remember, I am arguing thereotically here, as a devil's advocate, and I ain't done anything like that myself - though you wouldn't know that from Gucci! But I was provoked to comment on this by cmk76's report which seemed to describe behaviour that was working for both of them, and yet still falls outside your critieria of acceptibility.
If that was an exception, a fact, a report, where it was working for both of them, how many other exceptions may there be too? That is all I mean by nuance. Surely that is a reasonable thing? (Cmk is taking a low profile while I do all the hard theroretical legwork!)
I can certainly understand though, how you would be influenced in your consideration by your experience with that girl you helped. I can see how you would then think of all such ideas as a slippery slope downwards.
