Consent is more than sexy, it’s necessary. Oftentimes when we talk about sex, the focus is on pleasure but we forget that there are steps way before pleasure is achieved. This interactive, gender inclusive workshop explores consent as a necessary aspect to any encounter, challenging the socialized myth that when it comes to sex, consent is confusing, awkward and optional. In this training, participants will have the opportunity to parse how we as a society relate to consent, learn and be able to list the elements that are necessary for sexual consent to be present and gain a new freedom in navigating sexual experiences that always include consent as the foreplay (and lube, if you will) of life.
