Fall 2017 is a time of career-destroying sex scandals: producer Harvey Weinstein was kicked out of his own company, photographer Terry Richardson refused to work with the publishing house Conde Nast, and then the shooting of the series "House of Cards" was suspended: the leading actor Kevin Spacey was accused of that 32 years ago he molested 14-year-old actor Anthony Rapp. In early November, an anecdotal incident was added to all this: the British Secretary of Defense resigned, who in 2002 touched the journalist's knee.

Now social networks are discussing how to distinguish harassment from ordinary courtship and how to behave with women in 2017 so that no one can accuse you of inappropriate behavior in twenty years. The popular microblogger Sergei D, a lawyer by profession, has developed a detailed consent form for flirting, which must be printed and issued for signature to the object of sympathy.

First, the microblogger asked the subscribers where is the line between flirting and harassment, to which one of the subscribers replied: “We got informed consent - flirt. If you are a boss, she is a subordinate - then under no circumstances."

The official wording "informed consent" inspired the blogger to develop a written consent form for flirting.

Boys and girls, I understood everything about informed consent to flirting. Realized. I agree. And only written consent is better than oral consent.

Here's an excerpt from the document for those who don't like the fine print. The consent has been developed only for residents of St. Petersburg.
