I don't understand what was wrong with the whole situation.

Adults getting together to have sex with one another is normal behviour yes? If so, then I don't understand how such things can occur without some form of communication between the two people, and in any communication one party is going to be the one that initiated.

The problem, if I understand it, was that Watson was alone with a man in an elevator, and that situation made her (and would most women, am I understanding?) uncomfortable because of a risk of sexual assault?

How is that at all reasonable? Most men do not and never would commit assaults, if just the simple act of being in an elevator with a man makes the woman feel like an assault is a real possibility, that's insulting to ME, implying all men have the potential to commit sexual assaults in elevators.

Or should it always be the woman who initiates? How is that fair?

If I'm in an elevator with a black man, should I be uncomfortable because I've seen black men beat up white men?

Women aren't sex objects, they're people who have sex and people with whom other people would like to have sex with.

Someone help me, I'm honestly struggling to comprehend Watson's side of the argument here.
I know I get my favorite way of communicating that idea from A Beaufiful Mind. Movies area always providing such great pick up lines.

Nash: I don't exactly know what I am required to say in order for you to have intercourse with me. But could we assume that I said all that. I mean essentially we are talking about fluid exchange right? So could we go just straight to the sex.
