California Passes ‘Yes Means Yes’ Law



Here’s some uplifting news to read before you leave for your long weekend: California just became the first state to pass a ‘Yes Means Yes’ bill that would require all state-funded colleges and universities to adopt “affirmative consent” language in their definitions of consensual sex, Yahoo! News reports.
The California senate unanimously passed the bill in May, and it’s now set to be signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown. The law defines sexual consent between people as “affirmative, conscious, and voluntary agreement to engage in sexual activity.” In other words, silence or a lack of resistance do not count as consent, and drugs and alcohol will not (not that they ever should) excuse unwanted sexual activity or touching.
Governor Brown must sign the bill into law by September 30th, and if he does, it would be the first time a state would require such strong language to be a part of a school’s sexual assault policies, Claire Conlon, a spokesperson for Senator Kevin de Leon—who championed the bill—told Yahoo!.
We love this idea, not only because it seems to do away with the old “No means no” mentality, but because it champions enthusiastic consent between students. Hopefully, it’ll encourage all parties involved to stand up for themselves and talk about what they’re comfortable with. There’s nothing sexier or healthier than two people who really know what they want and aren’t afraid to say it.

seems like a harsh one to me! In a world where ladies "No" means "Yes" when it has to do with intimacy. they add more salt to injury by saying "silence and or lack of resistance do not count as consent" waaaat?... A saying that is in contrast with the common saying that says "Silence means Consent!" I wonder who sponsor this kind of bill sef!

It means sex will be preceded by a question and answer session.

Boy: do you know what i am getting ready to do you?

Girl: yes!

Boy: are you aware i have an ere.ction?

Girl: yes!

Boy: do you know what erect pennees do?

Girl: yes!

Boy: under California statute code 739 section X.X.X, do you consent to be fvckd by this penees?

Girl: yes!

Boy: to prove intent and consent in the AFFIRMATIVE grab the penees and insert it in your body.

Girl: ok.

Basically they're saying if a girl does not verbally agree to intimate activity, you cannot assume her smile/silence means she is interested, regardless of if she is high or drunk because that would count as rape_. It's all in a bid to tighten laws against sexual crime and harassment especially in schools. That's my understanding.

If its a case of the lady making the move, does the law also stipulates the lady to pop the question and the man to consent or is it usually the other way round?

Other Intelligent Lawmakers are covering all loopholes with unambiguous laws while the ones in Nigeria are impeaching poultry farmers, sharing monies and virtually doing nothing except passing budgets without asking questions.

When are we getting our Judiciary up and running with unambiguous laws covering every issue in life for quick dispensation of justice with stiffer penalties?

So if the girl doesn't say yes, but stays on top is that consensual?

consensual agreement btw both party.
Sexual cohesiveness btw the opposites.
They mean, sexual principle of reciprocity.
Infact, they mean no sexual militancy and insurgency.
They mean holo-sexual relativity.
I swear, they mean effusion of 'yeses'.
They are saying sexual desiderata . What the law preaches is romantic uniformitarianis. Infact, it encourages holo-hayalenal sexual acceptance. The law is frictional to rapemaniac, the law envices posterior and anterior compromise, they mean conspicous YES, as in, existentialistic YES is the case here. Like 'hemorhagic yes' is what they're talking about...Etc.
Hope u understand now.

what they are trying to say is that before a guy can have canal knowledge of a girl she must say yes if not it will be seen as rape/molestation.

Get it?
