GET CONSENT

Consent means both partners have a say in what they’re comfortable doing together.

It also means that, Even if you (or your partner) have said “yes” to something in the past, you (or your partner) can absolutely say “no” to that same thing at any time.

Even if you’re already “in the moment.”

Even if you’ve already done it before.

What YOU want matters.

CONSENT IS…

Active

If a person is drunk, asleep, or in another vulnerable position, the person is not able to give consent. If the person can’t actively respond with a “yes” to move forward, the physical interaction stops there.

A Choice

You and your partner should feel free to say “yes” or “no” to your chosen physical activity (and its boundaries) without pressure.

Conversation

Saying “yes” to one type of sexual contact doesn’t mean you (or your partner) consent to all types of sexual contact. Together, you get to decide what you’re both comfortable with and want to do together.
