Yes, because the guy you were with knew you weren't into it. It's not hard to read the room.

The number of times I hear men say something about how bad of a lover a woman is because she "just laid there" is astonishing.

If you can't read "just laying there" as the ultimate I do not want this signal then you are just being willfully blind so you can get what you want without the feeling of guilt.

Anything less than an enthusiastic YES! is a no. And they know that. Intuitively. I don't even believe it needs to be taught. They've just been allowed to pretend it's okay to have sex with a woman who CLEARLY does not want it.
