PSY 3122 Lecture Notes - Lecture 13: Planned Parenthood, Feminist Theory, Suicidal Ideation
Document Summary
Video: asking for it - the ethics & erotics of sexual consent. Feel pressured, too timid, too shy to say no. Saying yes once and feeling like you have to say yes from now on. Person is underage - can"t consent: age of consent in canada: 16. Person isn"t fully aware of what they"re getting themselves into: need informed consent. *token resistance (see last class): i don"t usually do this , gets you out of the double-bind of being seen as a slut or a prude since women can"t seem like they want sex. Different cultural norms and understanding as to the meaning of no . The idea that no means try harder . Determined by body language, but this is too easily misinterpreted. But, the only thing that"s yes is yes . Just because there"s no no doesn"t mean it"s a yes . Consent is not something you have, it"s something the other person has to give to you.
