    This discussion is going nowhere without a definition to shape it.

    https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/consent

    To express willingness, to give permission.

    It is impossible to give permission or express willingness without knowledge.

    I reject your use of consent in your examples… it would be better expressed as situational realities or obligations of existence rather then mindful permission.

      Reject all you want. It does nothing to change the outcome.

        Consent comes before the outcome. If the outcome happens without consent, the outcome happens without consent. The word consent has a meaning and it isn’t “something that happened”

        You’re ignoring what they’re saying. They know that. They simply disagree with your definition of consent because, well, its not the definition of consent.
