Is it easier to ask for forgiveness or permission?

I think it's easier to ask for permission because you haven't hurt them yet, forgiveness is when you have.

@Reject Do you think you should always ask for permission? i.e. do you suppose there are instances where asking for permission is more negative than assuming it?

@cultofaction Yes, I believe you should always ask. I don't think there's an instance where asking would be worse. Even if you're asking for permission to do a really offensive or disgusting thing, at least you're considering them first on their terms. They might not see how good that was of you depending on whatever you asked for, but it was still the right thing to do.

That is the rule of thumb - when you’re a teen trying to sneak out to a party you weren’t allowed to go to by your parents 😬
It depends on the particular scenario

@Underconstruction When would you not ask for permission?

There have been so many discussions about consent lately, I'm surprised you have to ask....

If you're gonna do it anyway, forgiveness.
