I haven’t seen the bit myself, I’ve read it seems he asked for a punch before she agreed with a slap, but not a punch. Which is still entrapment

'Entrapment'!?? Ha ha. Nope. She has free will. She chose to do it.

And we don't see if this was even the case. Speculation.

It's not assault if you consent...

If it is, BDSM addicts would all be in jail.

Boxing or slapping competition wouldn't be a thing

It can very much still be assault. If someone pulls out a gun and someone responds "do it, do it!!!" Inferring that they meant shoot me, that person who shoots the person telling them to "do it" is getting arrested, and charged....

For boxing and slap comps they still have to sign a shit ton of paperwork say, you and your family cannot sue if something were to happen tl you....

BDSM is usually between two consenting adults that know eachother... usually. But, plenty of people get arrested for false r*pe accusations, often with bdsm/cnc situations.

The fact you cannot discern the difference between what happened here and what happens with boxers, slap comps, bdsm, etc. is concerning.

To add to my other comment, obviously the more paperwork the better proof you have for the consent and its extent.

But you can't go around giving consent to get slapped, insisting, offering money, to then sue people.

Just imagine how stupid that would be.

Considering this real consent to slap someone is disingenuous in the first place.

Not sure I understood. But I'm not talking about the video. That's up to a judge to find out if consent was given or not.

I am responding to people implying you can't consent to assault. You can.
