Affirmative Consent - Consensual sexual activity requires an ongoing Affirmative Consent for the act in which the participants are involved. More specifically, Affirmative Consent means an expressed, affirmative, conscious, mutual, and voluntary agreement to engage in sexual activity. It is the responsibility of each person involved in the sexual activity to ensure that each person has the Affirmative Consent of the other, or others, to engage the sexual activity.
Lack of protest or resistance does not mean Affirmative Consent, nor does silence mean consent. There is no Affirmative Consent when there is force, expressed or implied, or when coercion, intimidation, threats, or duress is used to obtain Affirmative Consent. Affirmative Consent must be ongoing throughout a sexual activity and can be revoked at any time.
The existence of a dating relationship between the persons involved, or the fact of past sexual relations between them, should never, by itself, be assumed to be an indicator of Affirmative Consent.
If a person is mentally or physically incapacitated or impaired so that such person cannot understand the fact, nature, or extent of the sexual situation, there is no Affirmative Consent; this includes impairment or incapacitation due to alcohol or drug consumption or being asleep or unconscious. A person with a medical or mental disability may also lack the capacity to give Affirmative Consent.
Sexual activity with a minor (under 18 years old) is never consensual because a minor is considered incapable of giving legal consent due to age.
