Consent is crucial to any dynamic. Consent means respecting not only others' boundaries but also your own, requiring space for communication for people to feel safe and heard. It's important to practice consent in everyday life with everyone - from partners to children - to create that sense of security and community that people deserve. And even when the status quo says that we can get away with less, we need to bring everyone up to a higher standard.

Abbie and Antonio discuss what consent means, practicing consent, communication, asking versus expecting, respecting boundaries, the human language used for expression, stereotypes within the status quo, and platonic intimacy.
