Here’s a sampling of what Aella, a key organizer of Slutcon and a fixture of the rationalist/AI safety social scene, has said previously on Twitter about rape, teenagers and consent, and power imbalances in sexual situations:

don’t like that about cat-calling! also she claims the “sister on only fans” thing was a prank but like, that’s a weird prank, dude

and importantly, this is why Sex Work is Work! and it shouldn't matter if you're "enlightened" or "into it." It's because yes all the situations where we give up liberty to labor for money are fundamentally fucked up! Not because sex is special and different somehow.

When I was a grad student at MIT, at some point one of my profs and I were walking over to LCS (Laboratory for Computer Science), and he referred to “those horny CS guys” over there. He was pissed about how they treated the few women there. These creeps have been around a long time I’m afraid

I'm much older than this berk and neither I nor any of my peers ever experienced catcalling as a compliment. It was always associated with aggressive creepy men (and the implication that you maybe weren't modest enough / out at the wrong time/place / men gonna be men so protect yourself ladies!)
¯\_(ツ)_/¯@goatsfoot.bsky.social·2026-10-05T11:21:54.921Z#
My mother did insist to me that catcalling was a compliment, as was the time she was felt up by a hairdresser while obviously traumatised by it, and defending my DV perpetrator father, her sisters' various DV perpetrating husbands, etc, & bitterly blaming women. Denial made her feel better I guess.

absolutely bloodcurdling that such a basic fucking concept is utterly beyond her. of course ability to consent is severely affected by things external to the person! a gun to my head is external! it affects if what i'm doing is meaningfully consent! regardless what i'm forced to "consent" to!

It kind of rocks to analyze laws as if you're the first person to consider it with any kind of nuance. Libertarians love to do this. Drunk driving a crime? What about people who handle their liquor better? Statutory rape? What if both parties are minors?

Disparaging the use of the term 'survivors' to describe rape victims is maybe the most offensive thing I've ever seen Aella say, and it's not exactly a short list.
Bonus awful points for trying to cloak it in this breezy 'I'm just ceaselessly curious' sort of way.
