Why is it that woman do not consider ghosting demeaning and dehumanizing but some request guys make in the bedroom are?

1. I understand ghosting is a form of closure for some people. 2. I understand that if safety concerns are present and goes through might be the only option. 3. If a guy request something in the bedroom to a woman of sound mind and free will it indicates a request for consent and it informs the woman about a preference.

4. When someone ghost someone with the exception of safety concerns ghosting someone shows that you do not value that person to take time to talk to them to take time to see them in person or to even text them. It is pretty dehumanizing to say you're not worthy of my time my conversation or my text . 

Update:

Wiki definition-Ghosting is a colloquial term used to describe the practice of ceasing all communication and contact with a partner, friend, or similar individual without any apparent warning or justification and subsequently ignoring any attempts to reach out or communication made by said partner, friend, or individual.

Update 2:

comparing 2 different things does not mean that both have to do with each other! I get annoyed when I meet any women that will say "I can't believe my boyfriend or husband would ask me to do that in the bedroom" and they say they would never do anything so demeaning or dehumanizing but these individuals admit to have ghosted someone.

    I agree with it is hypocritical that they say it is demeaning but do not consider the act of ghosting as demeaning

    That's not really what ghosting means. Ghosting is a way of telling a guy you're not interested without leading him on or having to crush him. I know some guys prefer being told directly when a woman is not interested, but a lot of guys get very defensive and even manipulative or abusive when a woman tries to tell them no. A lot of guys find it way more demeaning to be rejected. Plus it's common knowledge now that ghosting doesn't necessarily mean any hard feelings, it's just the safest way for a woman to say no without actually saying no.
