If you think we should discourage grantmakers from sleeping with grantees but no further, what about managers and reports, highly senior and junior staff at an org who don’t share a management chain, senior researchers and junior researchers in the same field, or community builders and people just joining the community? -- Possibly you were trying to say this with your first sentence; not sure?
What I’m trying to get at here is that determining what sorts of interactions the community should discourage is complex, and asserting strong generic dating rights makes it harder to muddle out.
Yes, I was saying it in my first sentence. Everything which goes beyond that is crossing personal boundaries (at least of mine). This post in my opinion doesn’t talk about the examples you’ve mentioned above. It talks about two people who have no professional connection, but happen to be EA, at least to my understanding. Is my position clear to you now? If not, please let me know, I’ll try to explain it better.

Thanks! I understand your view a lot better than I did initially!
