The Louis C.K. who pulled out his little Louis and masturbated in front of female coworkers without their consent? That one?

Yes, sadly. That one.

Found it Here under Dating Takes Courage

A woman saying yes to a date with a man is literally insane and ill-advised, and the whole species’ existence counts on them doing it, and I don’t know how they– How do women still go out with guys when you consider the fact that there is no greater threat to women than men? We’re the number-one threat to women. Globally and historically, we’re the number-one cause of injury and mayhem to women. We’re the worst thing that ever happens to them...

How do they still do it? If you’re a guy, try to imagine that you could only date a half-bear, half-lion, And you’re like, “I hope this one’s nice. I hope he doesn’t do what he’s going to do.”

I mean yeah, Louis is a putz and a predator, but he did make a valid point.

AFAIK he asked for consent and the women thought he was joking.

Informed consent is important. If one party is unaware that it is NOT a joke, that's not informed consent.
