Consent

Without it, you have nothing

consent

Consent is the most important principle in BDSM and anything to do with sex. Consent is what sets what we do apart from abuse or assault. You will hear of it often in the show because it matters. I write about it often because it matters.

The following are writings that fall under that general description (though they may also be listed elsewhere.)

 

  • April is Male Survivor Awareness Month
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2017-04-06
    Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse and Assault Awareness Month With all of the talk about rape culture and sexual assault survivors, we often focus on one specific dynamic of this crime: female victims/male perpetrators. While this may represent a […]
  • Retroactively withdrawing consent
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2017-03-13
    The morning after; A bitter pill, the bitter truth The idea of retroactively withdrawing consent arose during an episode of The Third Rail on which I was the guest. The episode aired on May 1, 2016. We were talking about unconscious sex (which is a […]
  • Consent: How do you take your tea?
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2017-02-13
    Tea and Consent By now, I’m sure most of you have heard the tea analogy for consent.  If not, you can see it done below. It was put out there as a simple method of understanding consent, but is it enough? I don’t believe it is. It covers […]
  • Respect is earned: I can call you Sir?
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2017-02-06
    I can call you “Sir”, you say? Are you allowing me to call you Sir? How gracious of you! Really! I just met you but you are being kind enough to grant me a short-cut to a large portion of the process of building relationships, trust and […]
  • The 4Cs of BDSM (Episode 13)
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2016-12-21
    From “SSC” and “RACK” to the “4Cs”: Introducing a new Framework for Negotiating BDSM Participation. The existing models don’t quite do it. Within the BDSM community, we use phrases like “safe, sane and […]
  • Can we stop with the “SSC” already? Please?
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2016-12-12
    Is it time to retire “SSC”? I think so. There is a prevailing tendency within our community to look at milder BDSM activities as Safe, Sane, Consensual (SSC) and the rougher/tougher practices as Risk Aware Consensual Kink (RACK). I have […]
  • When People We Know Stand Accused (Episode 5)
    By Camille Beaujolie
    2016-08-28
    They stand accused … This episode has nothing to do with BDSM. Recent events involving people in the Toronto, Ontario and Edmonton, Alberta scenes inspired this episode, but there is nothing kinky about the allegations. These people stand […]
