This is a 2 minute reel explaining consent using preparing tea. Great resource to share with others!
explaining consent to a british person: “ok so imagine a cup of tea”
(jk this is a great video, thank you for sharing!)
This should be in every school’s sex ed courses
Thanks for sharing!🤗
I had to watch this video during my middle school sex ed classes. I have to say that I really like how consent is presented here, it’s a great video.
Yep it’s funny, engaging and easy to understand. It’s really clever
Now I’m gonna go make myself a cup of tea 😉
Pretty sad that this is even needed tbh but it’s all very well put.
I think a good indicator of how people really are with the idea of consent and boundaries (even if they charm their way with other social conventions) is to watch them with pets, especially cats.
That’s an interesting point about pets, can you explain what you mean?
Some people are very forceful with animals and disrespectful of boundaries with them. I think that cats especially are good at making it clear what they would like or not like you to do.
Maybe it’s an unfair criteria to judge people on but people forcing animals to do things or otherwise treating them like objects is a red flag to me.
I see your point. Cats in jumpers are adorable but I’ve never seen a cat that wants to wear a jumper. There’s a known link between criminal dangerousness and animal abuse so the science kinda backs you up
Yeah, also forcing it to sit or stay somewhere. And getting angry at retaliation and that sort of thing.
Obviously there’s exceptions like children or people who maybe just genuinely don’t know how to handle animals but I think a lot show their true colours when it comes to something that can’t really fight back or speak for itself like a pet.
@dandelion@blahaj.zone you might like this
yes, thank you for making sure I saw it!
It definitely gets the idea across. It’s disturbing to me that a video like this even needs to be made, it makes me want to study how things got to this point, why people view sex differently, etc.
Things got this way by thousands of years of women and their wombs being treated as the property of men. To this day, deep down somewhere primal and cultural, men still think of women that way. (You can see evidence of this in the majority of the pornography men consume; in what turns men’s cranks.)
Yep!
