Why Shannon Sharpe’s Dating Controversy Isn’t Just ‘Freaky’

Highlight from a previously recorded livestream talking about Shannon Sharpe, Consent, and the Age Gap. In this episode of Keeping It Conscious, I’m breaking down the controversy around Shannon Sharpe’s "date your wage" comments — and the leaked phone calls that raise serious questions about age gaps, consent, and power dynamics. I’m asking: is it just “freaky,” or is it predatory? I want us to think critically about how money, race, and systemic issues shape the way we view relationships between older men and younger women. I’m talking about why two things can be true at the same time: you can have consent without having ethical balance of power. I’ll unpack how age, money, domination, and racial dynamics all intersect — and why understanding coercion is crucial, especially in these conversations.
