Halibut   12 #1 Posted September 25, 2018 The Family Planning Association recently conducted a survey to explore attitudes to sexual consent.  Very depressingly in my view 47% of those surveyed said they didn't think it was Ok for a person to withdraw consent if the other person was already naked.  I think it's something we urgently need to educate young people about.

Lex Luthor   10 #2 Posted September 25, 2018 If the role of consent does not appear in the foundations of every school's Sex and Relationships Education, then it should, and it should be compulsory. No opt outs for parents, it should be compulsory for all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Lockdoctor   10 #7 Posted September 25, 2018 Anyone old enough to take part in a Family Planning Association should know what amounts to rape. Our selfish society is one reason why young people behave badly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Hogg   10 #11 Posted September 27, 2018 Young people (and others) may well get 'carried away' and then realise that they don't want the situation to go any further. Only a rapist would carry on without consent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

What do you think?  It’s wrong there should be no parameters on withdrawing consent - anything else is potentially advocating rape.
