Correctly defining consent can save countless victims from sexual assault, rape, domestic violence, sex trafficking, stealthing, nonconsensual distribution of imagery, and more! In fact, every human interaction should respect each person’s individual right to “consent” over their property and their bodily autonomy; yet consent could be the most misunderstood word in our justice system!
Our Mission: To correctly define consent in penal laws everywhere.
When consent is properly defined in penal laws, judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and jurors will have a clear understanding of the criteria to determine guilt or innocence in all sex crimes. Instructions by judges will inform jurors of the basis by which to make their determinations and that basis will be consistent from case to case. The public will become keenly aware of the difference between what constitutes legally acceptable and illegal sexual behavior.
Consent Must Be Clearly Defined, Because Current Laws Enable Crime!
