What is Consent?

Consent on the internet holds the same idea as consent anywhere else. It’s about permission, decision, and choice. So a right to online consent means you should be able to decide what you share about yourself online, as well as how much you share, and in what context you share it. Consent online can be broken down into 2 parts: giving permission for your content to be used and asking permission to use other peoples.

Consent occurs when one person voluntarily agrees to the proposal or desires of another. It is a term of common speech, with specific definitions as used in such fields as the law, medicine, research, and sexual relationships. Consent as understood in specific contexts may differ from its everyday meaning

Importance of Consent

Communication, honesty and respect make sexual relationships better. Asking for and obtaining consent shows respect for yourself and your partner. It eliminates the entitlement that one partner might feel over the other. Neither your body nor your sexuality belongs to someone else.

Break down of the four types of online consent

Implied consent: Implied consent is consent which is not expressly granted by a person, but rather implicitly granted by a person's actions and the facts and circumstances of a particular situation.

Expressed consent: Express consent is valid consent given in writing or orally. [1] Express consent is when the patient directly communicates their positive and explicit consent to the doctor or healthcare provider. This is usually done in writing by signing papers.

Informed consent is a process for getting permission before conducting a healthcare intervention on a person, for conducting some form of research on a person, or for disclosing a person's information

Unanimous consent - A senator may request unanimous consent on the floor to set aside a specified rule of procedure so as to expedite proceedings.

Why should we all care about consent?

Why are we all here today? For most of us, it’s about people. It’s about protecting your future and your friends’ futures and the futures of people to come. It’s about protecting the lives of people right now.

This work is NOT easy - we all know that. Consent really boils down to respect - if you respect everyone here today, you don’t want to cross a line or hurt them. You want to avoid that at all costs, right?

So here’s what we do - ASK!! I’m a hugging person - so what do I do? ASK!

Some people think it’s really awkward, but you know what’s even more awkward? That first therapy session with a new counselor because you’re traumatised.
