1 " Any model of consent can prove itself worthless if a man is not open to his sexual partner's no, or her changing desires, and if he responds to either of these with a rage borne of humiliation. "

2 " The fantasy of total autonomy, and of total self-knowledge, is not only a fantasy; it’s a nightmare. "
