Respond to this classmate
How would you define sexual consent?:
I would define sexual consent as both individuals granting full permission and being completely accepting of receiving or giving certain sexual acts upon their partner. Both individuals need to verbally state and confirm what their limits are and understand as well as respect their wishes. There should in no way or form ever be hesitance or pressure from either party while doing so. Moreover, sexual consent needs to remain throughout the entirety of the sexual activities.
From your understanding, is this situation common? Is this something that good people could do without even realizing it? Why or why not?:
From my understanding I believe this situation is common, I’ve heard similar stories from friends and coworkers both guys and girls. There seems to be this common situation that even when expressed beforehand on what an individual’s limit may be, if a single form of sexual act begins it just keeps escalating until intercourse occurs. As mentioned in the video the sad part is that most individuals would just go along with it. I think certain situations are very specific, but I do believe that at times this is something that good people could do without even realizing it. It shouldn’t ever occur but as mentioned in the video sometimes individuals don’t have the strength to fight their sexual desires and check up on the other individual to see if they’re still ok with it or give consent.
How do you think students overall could improve on clear sexual communication?:
One way students could overall improve on clear sexual communication is by discussing with the other individual what their limit is and what sexual activities they’re ok with. Moreover, throughout intimacy both individuals should check up on each other and verbally ask and confirm if they’re still ok with it if the situation were to escalate or change.
