Let's talk about consent 💜

Consent is a key part of sexual violence prevention. It's more than just saying "yes" - consent is an ongoing conversation.

Healthy consent is like FRIES:

🍟 Freely given – nobody forced or pressured you to give consent.
🍟 Reversible – you can change your mind at any time, even if you said yes before.
🍟 Informed – you know what you’re agreeing to.
🍟 Enthusiastic – consent should be something you genuinely want, not something you feel you have to do.
🍟 Specific – saying yes once does not automatically mean yes everytime.

☝🏼Remember: silence isn't consent, pressure isn't consent, and intoxication isn't consent.

Any type of sexual activity without consent is sexual assault. 🛑

Let's make consent a part of everyday conversations. We all have a part to play in preventing sexual violence.

💜 This week is Sexual Violence Awareness Week in Newfoundland and Labrador. 💜

Today, let's talk about an important part of sexual violence prevention: ending victim blaming.

Harmful questions like "what were you wearing?" or "why were you alone?" shift the focus from the person who caused harm and place responsibility on the victim.

Sexual violence is never the victim's fault. The only person responsible for sexual violence is the perpetrator.

When victims are believed and supported, they are more likely to feel safe reaching out for help or reporting what happened.

We all have a role to play in creating an environment where survivors feel safe to speak up. Let's stop blaming the victim and choose words that support survivors, challenge harmful attitudes, and help create safer communities.
