The Enthusiastic Yes

Thu, May 14, 2020 from 7pm - 8:30pm

This event has passed.

The "enthusiastic yes" has become a popular new standard of sexual consent in the wake of the #MeToo movement. But is it really the safest form of affirmative consent? How do you get an enthusiastic yes without being coercive or just plain weird? And what do you do if you find enthusiasm hard to muster? Join us as we explore the answers to these questions and more. We'll also take a look at the history of sexual consent to inspire the creation of your own modern day consent ethos.

It’s the cornerstone of what we teach and who we are. And while that is easy to say, we know that living a dedication to consent takes work, awareness, and a willingness to engage.
