keep it consensual: ask first!

(con)sensual is a dynamic, sex-positive campaign about enthusiastic consent. The campaign works to create safe spaces for dialogue on consent, educate college students about consent and their sexual rights, and encourage young people to integrate consent into their sexual practices. We love sex, and we love you. We live online here and on Twitter. (Our website is on the way.)

(con)sensual currently lives at American University in Washington, DC, where it was founded in 2009. The campaign will be available to all campuses nationwide within the year.

    swankology: This is one of my absolute favourite ‘lines’ from the website I mentioned in my last post. Completely blew my mind. Not because I don’t agree (I do agree), but rather because no one talks about consent. At least not in the context of day to day life and stable relationships. Mostly what I hear about is consent re:horrifically violent rape (the kinds of cases that go to court and are somewhat publicized). Rarely do I see talk of the fact that being in a relationship doesn’t mean Unquestioned Consent No Matter What laid out so plainly.
