Quotes 

• Male Lawyer : [to Taylor]  You went to this party. You went to meet Eric.

  Taylor Blaine : I told you that.

  Male Lawyer : He knew you liked aggressive contact. How is any of this rape?

  Taylor Blaine : Because I never said yes! I never got to say yes. He gave me a drink, I started to feel sick. I couldn't control myself. It was like I was watching this happen to me. It was like I had to watch myself. It happened so fast, but it took forever to stop.

• Anne Blaine : [to Taylor]  Who was the other one? Who was the first one?

  Taylor Blaine : Mark, when I was, um, in 8th grade. He used to come over.

  Anne Blaine : How did it...?

  Taylor Blaine : Start? It just did.

  Anne Blaine : Well, did he do things to you? Did... did you do things to him?

  Taylor Blaine : It was both of us. He used to sleep over. We never did anything in the house.

  Anne Blaine : So that makes it all right? As if it wasn't in the house, then whatever you were doing, it's okay?

  Taylor Blaine : If it was a girl, you wouldn't care.

• Evy Dominguez : [to Taylor]  I don't care that you're gay.

  Taylor Blaine : I'm not. I...

  Evy Dominguez : Just be a man. Okay? Tell the truth.

• Evy Dominguez : [to Taylor]  You texted Eric about holding you down, about choking you. You didn't have to figure that out, right? You knew how you wanted him to grind on you. So how are you confused? What are you confused about?

  Taylor Blaine : How I feel about you.

  Evy Dominguez : When did you feel anything about me? I see how you lied to me. I see how you'd get a few beers in me, tell me to hard-grind on you some. Was I supposed to be a boy to you? Is that why you did me like that? Is that why you were with me? Am I a boy to you?

  [slaps Taylor in the face and starts hitting him in the arm] 

  Evy Dominguez : Did you give me anything? Are you clean?

  Taylor Blaine : I'm clean.

  Evy Dominguez : How do you know?

  Taylor Blaine : I got tested.

  Evy Dominguez : You did it enough you had to get tested?

  Taylor Blaine : I... just I got tested.

  Evy Dominguez : I stood up for you. Everybody else they cut you, but I stood up! You want I should go tell the police that you're a lying piece of shit? Hmm? Do you want me to go and tell them that you're a liar?
