- Wow. So I guess she really wasn't giving consent. But how do I know if someone is giving to consent?
- There are many ways that someone can show they are not consenting. While consent does not strictly apply to sexual situations, in this case, consent can not be given if they are under the age of consent, which is 16 in New Hampshire, unconcoius, or under the influence of any substance. If they say no, refuse to answer, I'm not sure, stop, I don't want to, or anything else that doesn't explicitly say they want to participate in that activity at that time, then they aren't giving consent.
- Okay. This is starting to make sense. But what it look like when someone is/isn't giving sense?
- If someone is enthusiasticly anc explcittly saying yes, I want to do that, absoultuely, and they are above the age of consent, conscious, and sober, then they are giving consent. .
- How about we look at some examples.
- Was consent given?
- Sorry, no. I need it to get to my doctor's appointment.
- No, because she explictly said no, therefore she didn't give consent.
- Do you mind if I borrow your car later? It's super important!
- Okay. I respect that.
- Did she give consent?
- Hey, can I have some of your fries?
- Yes, of course! Thank you for asking.
- Yes, the girl on the left asked for consent to have some of the other girls french fries, and the other girl expicttly said yes.
- No. While he did engage in that activity the week before, he didn't give consent this time, and even though he gave consent last time, because he didn't this time, he didn't give consent.
- No. I don't want to tonight.
- That was last week. I do not want to this week.
- But you wanted to last week.
- Did he give consent?
- I'm having a great time. Do you want to come back to my place?
- No. She wasn't giving consent because she explicitly said no, told me to leave her alone, and said she didn't want to engage in any activity.
- I really shouldn't have catcalled her in the first place, but after she intially said no, I don't want to, I should have said I respected her decision and left her alone.
- Final question. In your situation, was the girl giving consent or not, and how do you know?
- And what should you have done?
- Good answer. Now, I hope you learned your lesson about consent, and know that is never okay to try to make someone do acts, whether sexual or nonsexual, against their will.
