Anyway in terms of what’s changed with kids these days the answer is basically access. Smartphones and mobile data.

In terms of legality, it is illegal if there’s any suspicion that it’s “real” violence and there was a change a few years back to stop “realistic rape porn” even when it’s acting but there’s still plenty of “consensual aggression” that comes pretty close to the line, and like I said before it’s often so drenched in exploitation and coercion that the “consent line” is really blurred.
In reply to a quote of yours, not quoted, it's about knowing your partner.... someone thrusting my head down is quite normal to me, but you either discuss it before hand or just say no during.......someone slapping my arse or pulling my hair a little again is normal to me and a turn on to a lot of people...kinks....but I understand that it is also an issue.

When we talk about consent, I think we forget to think about capacity.... they can go hand in hand.... if someone is already vulnerable are they able to consent and do they have the capacity to do so... I won't get all boring on this, but sex workers for example are most likely going to be very vulnerable.....children, who because of their age etc etc not mentioning the legalities of it. For example, I know, as a 30 year old man if someone did something during sex I was not happy with them I would say so. Some because of vulnerabilitie, consent, capacity feel like they can't. I don't want to over complicate the subject...but yeah, worth considering.
