On this episode, Bailey Grace and Courtney from the Locala Sexual Health Outreach Team discuss the concept of consent.
Courtney explains that real consent is clear, mutual, ongoing, and enthusiastic, emphasising that individuals can change their minds at any time. She advises prioritising personal safety and seeking support from trusted individuals or services if consent is not respected.
Courtney debunks common myths about consent, such as the belief that silence or body language alone indicates agreement. She also provides guidance on setting boundaries, responding to uncertainty or refusal, and seeking help after traumatic experiences.
