About the workshop:
This workshop is a great pleasure-inclusive intro to understanding consent.
In this workshop we will brainstorm (and practice!) many ways of asking for consent, saying yes, and saying no, so you can find at least one of each that works for you. We'll explore how getting consent can be a fun, sexy conversation where you learn about what your partner likes and wants.
We'll also look at different ways to gracefully accepting a "no" that help the person saying no feel respected, and minimize awkwardness.
Great sex happens when everyone involved is confident that their partner(s) are 100% on board with every sexy thing that happens. Learn to get comfortable communicating about sex, and you may find that you enjoy sex more!
