Freely Given
Reversible
Informed
Enthusiastic
Specific
Shared sexual history (past sexual encounter)
Did not say “stop”
Being in a relationship (not married)
Flirting
Provocative attire
Married
In a comprehensive definition of consent, the following terms typically apply:
Freely Given
Informed
Enthusiastic
Specific
Did not say “stop”
Consent should be freely given without any form of coercion or pressure, informed meaning both parties understand what they are agreeing to, enthusiastic indicating active willingness, specific to the particular activity or encounter, and the absence of a “stop” indicating a clear lack of consent.
The other terms such as reversible, shared sexual history, being in a relationship, flirting, provocative attire, and being married are not necessarily indicative of consent on their own and can vary greatly depending on the context.
