I keep seeing this term, can you translate it to American? Is it referring to anyone obsessed with sex, or specifically people who commit sexual assault?
I've heard it used, as an American myself. Sex-pest is someone who is bothersome towards others, typically in a harassing way with some thin layer of plausible deniability, in the expectation or hope of getting reluctant sex out of someone else.
Thanks.
Pretty sure it’s just a British way of saying “sexual predator.” I’ve heard it used to describe pretty extreme predator/assaulter behavior.
