Comic Michael Henry makes a serious short film that really hits home<\/b><\/p>\n

Michael Henry<\/a> in Adjacent (Photo: YouTube)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

YouTuber Michael Henry is known for his short, comic videos<\/a> which typically and humorously explore facets of gay<\/a> life.<\/p>\n

However, not all aspects of life can be treated in the same way. His latest YouTube upload is an 11-minute short movie about sexual consent that he says he and his friends have been working on for months.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

In the movie, entitled Adjacent<\/em>, Michael and his friends are shown getting ready for a typical night out. They’re drinking and bitching with one another, talking about sex<\/a> and men<\/a> and how badly they’d like to get laid.<\/p>\n

If you don’t want any spoilers, don’t read any further and just watch the hard-hitting movie below. However, as Michael warns in the accompanying YouTube caption: “This video<\/a> does deal with some subject matter that will be considered extra sensitive and\/or triggering to some.”<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Michael and his two friends go to a club. They continue drinking and eyeing up other guys<\/a>. Michael picks up a handsome stranger and goes back to his apartment for sex<\/a>. Although Michael says he’s only looking to perform oral sex<\/a> on his pickup, the man<\/a> has other ideas.<\/p>\n

What happens makes for uncomfortable viewing. It’s perhaps even all the more shocking because we’ve grown to know Michael’s funny, wise-cracking and sweet persona through his other videos<\/a>, and to watch someone we’ve grown to love being violated is all the more shocking.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the scenario is not far-fetched and is something many gay<\/a> men<\/a> may identify with.<\/p>\n

Indeed, many of those commentating on the video<\/a> say it’s very identifiable.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

“How many of us have experienced something like this before? I know I have…Michael. This may be a far cry from your usual videos<\/a>, but all the same, very well done. I hope some people can learn from this,” commented one.<\/p>\n

Another simply said, “Thank you for bringing awareness to such an important issue!”<\/p>\n

If you’ve been the victim of sexual assault and want to talk to someone, contact RAINN<\/a> in the US. 800.656.HOPE (4673)<\/em><\/p>\n
