Giving and getting sexual consent is more than Yes and No.
There are 3 BIG Questions that must be answered before sexual consent can be given. If even one of these issues occurred, then you have the right to report and get help.
Age
I am under 16 years old.
The other person has authority over me (coach, teacher, boss) and I am not 18.
I am a teen and there is more than a 4 year age difference between us.
Aware
I was asleep or passed out when it happened.
I was drunk, using drugs, or think I was drugged.
I have a guardian who makes decisions for me.
Interest
I didn’t want sex and was clear about it.
I thought I wanted sex, but changed my mind and said no.
I shut down when I became uncomfortable, but I was ignored.
Engaging in sex without the Green light is illegal.
Before You “GO”, learn the Age, Awareness, and Interest of your partner so no one is harmed or accused of a crime.
