Saying Yes or No: What Is Consent?

You don't have to do anything that you don't want to do. If you're being pressured to do something you're not comfortable with, that's called coercion, even if it's your significant other. Sexual consent means that two people are actively willing to engage in a particular sexual behavior and express their consent by saying "Yes! That is ok with me." But just because someone consents to engage in one kind of behavior, doesn't mean they have agreed to engaged in another. You have the right to change your mind about what you want or not want to do at any time!

I have 2 sisters, an older one, and a younger one. And they are are both CHAOTIC. my little sister, she is the MONSTER in my family. And my older sister, she is of coarse the smartest and the funniest in my family, and me- I’m just the middle child :’) . if you guys want to have a sister, then ok! But they will be annoying sometimes- actually, all the time 😂

[@enzothegift]

Constructive criticism: The animation is amazing and what its talking about is a serious subject , the vidio would be a 10/10 but you guys need to get a better recording studio and anything can really help , like recording in a closet , the echo was kinda coming through at times Hope yall work tht thnks :)

Yes, definitely. These are the most tolerable.

[@GhoulishCinnamon]

So... I decided to take the polls and it genuinely concerns me how many high school students, including myself, aren't taught about consent in their sex Ed course. Seriously, schools. You need to really start teaching kids the important stuff. Most states teach students about reproduction in their middle school health class, and some even teach about the dangers of unprotected sex. Students need to know that it's ok to say no to sexual contact.

[@megandavis2819]

[@stejac133]

"Webflix and chill"

[@ds4933]

If you don't say yes or no does that count? Like people in movies don't ask for consent they just do "it".

[@amazeorg]

Hi, Beanie. People in the movies aren't always the best example of how to handle real-life scenarios. The problem with not saying either yes or no is that neither of you can express honestly and clearly what you're ready for or not ready for. You might think, for example, that your partner's body language suggests they are cool with something, but that doesn't make it true. After all, you'd be assuming. Consent also isn't a one-time thing. You might be cool with one thing, but not another. It's an ongoing conversation which is why it's best to talk these things out and ask for an explicit "yes" or "no." Hope this helps!

[@BlueSkidoo13]

Always ask if you’re unsure. It won’t ruin the mood or come off as unsexy. You can only really do it without talking if it’s someone you know and they’re giving off the body language for it. Even then, asking isn’t a bad thing.

[@Tsuki14Moonlight]

sometimes people who know each other for long can tell by body language, but surely not in the first time of doing it, and even then it's possible to get the message wrong. besides, some people panic and freeze, so they might not be able to push the other person from them or say no, or be scared that the other person might not respect a no, so it's a good idea to talk about sex with your partner if possible, to know their visions and boundaries and communicate yours, before the sex too, and ask if you can keep going or if they are okay and keep an eye if they are still consenting till the end. sex in movies is a bit romanticized tho, the idea that love makes you a psychic doesn't really carry on to reality nwo

Sister goals

[@Kat-zn5xk]

Wow, this is amazing! Thank you! The older sister explains a lot without sounding unnatural or like she is directly reading off Wikipedia. It sounds like a real conversation! I also Love the animation and character designs. This is great for any young teens (like me) to watch, as it explains important things without sounding boring or generic. I also like that it doesn't criminalize the boy, as he does not realize that he is taking it too far, and most likely doesn't know enough about consent either.

[@amazeorg]

Thank you!

[@Kat-zn5xk]

You're welcome :D I didn't think to mention (because I didn't think you would see my comment), but at 3:56 Eve's voice sounds a bit strange. Sorry if you already know, I'm not trying to be rude or anything. But again, love the video!

[@amazeorg]

Thank you! Please feel free to share our video.

[@angelcake3646]

okay, so, i have one complaint, they never specifically stated weather it was considered rape AFTER the fact even if consent is given. Like, if they did consent on both sides, but afterwards the female/male regretted it. That isn't rape when that happens. I've seen people go to court claiming to have been raped when in fact they consented and just regretted it afterwards. I guess that's something that needed to be stated to make sure there are no mistakes made out of confusion.

[@buttons6816]

Regret isn’t rape

[@SoujaGyrl]

caught recant consent after the fact, however, you can access and decide the next time and any time after that, not to consent or recant, before any thing happens. regret happens some times.

[@Luxembourgish]

I'm sorry you were pressured, that is bad. However its important to know that with the law, the pressure needs to reach the level of threats or blackmail for it to be considered coercion. Threats or blackmail are what invalidate consent, not just pressure.

[@BuyBBStonk]

Do women want men to ask for permission before he can kiss her? Or is it more romantic to just lean in and surprise? Perhaps it's best to just avoid these situations and abstain from relationships altogether.

[@olioliver1606]

GlennCocoGuitar kissing is different from sex. Kiss her and if she kisses back take it slow. If she stops you then stop. That simple.

[@emersonjasper1493]

Yes, he still needs consent. It says that in the video.

[@pearlyp9898]

GlennCocoGuitar I think it depends. I say, first ask, but maybe that's just me since I would be super freaked out if someone just... kissed me for the first time without asking first. I personally wouldn't find asking for permission as unromantic or anything, just that it would show that you're a caring person who respects boundaries.

[@wwsmom]

ASK. Asking can be very, very attractive when it's someone you want to kiss!

Let me define consent for you after scrolling through your phone without your consent lol

[@Zxzzxxzv]

Hugging and regular touching (like leaning or something pulling on someone arm in excitement or jumping into you out of fear) isnt sexual, but it should be expressed that its not wanted and shouldnt happen again if its not wanted. Accidents happen. So be sure to just push someone away gently and ask to not be touched. People are from different cultures and someone might not know. Giving someone a second chance after they learn isnt such a bad thing either. I was a clumsy person in highschool and i annoyed people a lot by accident. But after someone said to try not to touch them i was hyper aware and the person was a lot happier (^-^) a young age is all about learning!!
