Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research
save_the_humans@leminal.space 4 days agoThere was certainly some terrible information perpetrated in the beginning which I imagine could have led to some misconceptions and false claims. I remember the first training I went to said that a single sip of alcohol voided your ability to give consent. This is untrue and consent can, legally, be given under the influence albeit may complicate some aspects of some investigations, but the more recent trainings/talks I’ve been to on consent have been excellent and should absolutely be encouraged.
We want a world where everyone understands consent, so people don’t have to preemptively put up so many personal walls around themselves just to feel safe in everyday interactions.
