'Massachusetts can do a better job on sexual and relationship education'

Although the article applies to Massachusetts, this message applies to *all* states:

⭐ We must do a better job on teaching young people about healthy relationships and consent.

❤️ And a quick reminder: April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month #SAAM.

⭐ It's possible to address traumatizing topics without creating #trauma in the process.

🔁 Our free game ADRIFT is an example of that. The game is about #consent but is appropriate for all ages. It's a quick game so you can replay it if you don't get each scenario correct on the first try.

🖼️ It was even re-created for the MOD. museum in Australia.

💜 April is #SAAM.

A note on #Consent

Being on a #Queer friendly or #SexPositive instance does not grant consent.

Wearing #Leather, #Rubber, #Boots or any #Kink related item does not grant consent.

Unless specifically allowed in a user's profile, or in a conversation, don't reply with sexually charged comments. Doing so is like touching a stranger in public, and that is not ok without express approval.

Please remember to be respectful when interacting with others on any platform

Consent is sexy!
