// Let’s Talk About Consent//
Consent is the presence of a clear and sober “yes”.
Consent is not the absence of a “no”.
Consent to one sexual act is not consent for a different sexual act. If she agrees to make out with you, that doesn’t mean she’s agreeing to suck your dick. If she agrees to give you head that doesn’t mean she agrees to having sex with you, etc.
Just because he has given consent for a sexual act before, does not mean that he consents to every sexual act from then on.
A relationship is not consent.
Marriage is not consent.
Flirting is not consent.
Kissing is not consent.
Rape and sexual assault are defined by the survivor.
Anyone can be a survivor of rape or sexual assault. Rape and sexual assault to do not discriminate by gender, age, or nationality. Rape and sexual assault can happen to anyone.
