What is consent?
Base your consent on your autonomous desires rather than what you are being asked to do or what you’ve seen someone do with other people. Remember that anyone can stop what’s happening at any time during the activity, and consent to one thing doesn’t mean consent to anything else nor does it imply future consent. Be aware of everyone’s limitations or barriers to their ability to consent to the planned activities, such as age, diminished mental capacity, or use of drugs or alcohol.
