plannedparenthoodla:

When it comes to sex, consent means to give permission. The only way to know if you have consent is if your partner gives you an enthusiastic “yes” in a way that is totally clear to you.

 Not sure? Ask. 

 Don’t get a “yes?“ STOP!

 What does it mean to keep consent ACTIVE?

Keeping consent active means continuing to check in with your partner and make sure both people feel comfortable, safe and respected during any sexual act(s).

Everyone has the right to decide whether or not they want to have sex. Decisions about sex need to be made together. If one partner does not want to have sex, then the couple should not have sex. It is both partners’ responsibility to ask for consent before any sexual activity.

Remember to Keep Consent Active!
