During the group’s performance, the singers would call up a man and woman from the audience. The two audience members would dance and then the singers would encourage one audience member to kiss the other on the cheek, Brown wrote.

“In the last few years, we have taken intentional steps towards ensuring that audience participation is more voluntary and consensual. These steps have clearly not succeeded in guaranteeing total comfort for both participants or in obtaining continual consent,” Brown wrote. “Performances of this song have made participants uncomfortable and offended audience members, an outcome which is antithetical to our group’s mission and one that we deeply regret.”

They should get two transgender lesbians to go up and do it and the same crowd would applaud and write about it in the Tumblr blog

False: consent should be obtained via a legal document.

People are triggered just by the idea of a non-consensual kiss on the cheek.

Consent? Like when she lied to Eric about what she really was in an attempt to seduce him?
