Consent is getting permission from both sides. Consent is important to any relationship. You don't want to overstep your boundaries or accidentally hurt someone. Consent may look or sound like asking permission to do certain things. Such as holding hands, kissing, etc... If you don't ask for consent, the other person may become uncomfortable and may not want to see you. Because, it wasn't consensual.

Consent is permission or an agreement in order to do something. When it comes to consent, let's say in a relationship one wants to kiss and they aren't sure their partner does, if that person wants to kiss and if they ask consent of their partner and their partner saids yes, then it looks like it isn't something pressured because there was consent basically an agreement for that person to kiss their partner.

consent is asking permission to someone's proposal or desires. It's important because If you just do whatever you want without consent you might get in trouble or hurt other people. consent looks like when you ask propose someone something, and they say yes.

Consent is like asking permission for something more serious. It is important to ask consent before taking action because maybe you want to do something but the other person does not agree with you. If you don't listen to the other person than you are not being consent. Consent is like , Hey can I borrow you'r lipstick except with a more serious manner.

Consent is getting permission in order to do something. Consent is asking someone if they are comfortable doing something instead of pressuring them into doing it.

Consent is when you give some one permission to do something. It's important because you don't want to just go into something not knowing what the other person wants. It looks like what the consent was for.

I think depending on who the person is teens are comfortable but most likely teens are shy to ask for consent also to give consent u can always change ur mind it just really depends on who it is.

# data[].attributes.body
Consent means to give someone permission to do something. It is important to give consent because you or the person could do something that either you or the other person wouldn't like.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like this question depends on the teens behavior, and how they act.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that teens feel comfortable and confident asking for consent if they know that the other person feels the same. Then they don't have to worry about it being awkward or embarrassing. You could give consent then change your mind. You could end up getting shy last minute. Though it really depends on the person, some are confident some are to shy. Teens can say "Yes" or "No" to these kinds of things, it all depends on what you're comfortable with. Thou if you are younger (around 14-16 maybe) maybe you shouldn't be engaging in sexual activity and/or sexting.

# data[].attributes.body
i think some teens would give consent to their partner cause they are curious on what it feels like. But some would like to wait until they are old enough to do it

# data[].attributes.body
Well I think teens should be confident in asking consent first before taking action than being shy. Asking consent is no shy manner when it comes to sexual activity. If the other person responds with a I don't know or no than Do not take action. Do not take action until the other person say's yes. Otherwise they can use their words against you.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that teens are all different when it comes to this. Some could be shy and not be sure about it. Others could just say yes and go for it. It depends on what it is that the teens are asking and what they are feeling.

# data[].attributes.body
It depends what you ask and who because to the partner they are probably not ready.It just depends on things like the person timing etc

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like most teens aren't comfortable and confident in asking and giving consent when it comes to engaging in sexual activity. I say this from what I've seen with teenagers today. A lot of teenagers go along with what their partners want to because a lot of the times they're afraid of speaking up to their partner about it. I feel as though, if there isn't consent given then why do teenagers have to engage themselves in sexual activity. It just seems wrong because teenagers basically pressure themselves in these sexual activities because of their partner's pressure and because they don't understand consent should be needed. Not just that but because they aren't confident in asking for consent when they should be.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it depends on the person, some people might be less comfortable than others.

# data[].attributes.body
Consent is giving permission to do something or having an agreement to do something. Consent is important because if you don't have permission to do something that involves them it shouldn't be done. You should be able to understand and communicate with the other person instead of just doing things. For example, if you ask me to use my phone and I say yes, then you have my consent. If I say no, then you don't. Consent sounds like "yes I want to do this" or "yes you can take it."

# data[].attributes.body
I think most teens would not be comfortable and confident by asking or giving consent to engage in sexual activity. Everyone is different so I do not know.

# data[].attributes.body
Consent is when two people both agree and are comfortable doing something with one another. Consent looks and sounds like an agreement, not one party trying to convince the next, its a clear agreement.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that it depends on the teenager themselves, if they feel that they are ready to do those things, as long as they're informed and being safe while doing it they're okay.

# data[].attributes.body
Consent is having the knowledge that you have someone’s permission to perform or do something with them being aware. Consent is important because not having someone’s consent in something makes the other half feel uncomfortable and in lots of other cases, violated.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it depends on the maturity level of the teen. Some teens might fall into the pressure of wanting to do something they don’t want to and others might know how to handle it.

The video helped in shaping my understanding of consent by showing that we all are able to protect each other's privacy just by asking for consent for whatever the reason is. The speaker spoke about how a girl's nude got leaked because a boy she thought she could trust leaked it and how it made her look like a horrible person. Which helped me in understanding that consent is very important. If there was consent given, I feel like that girl wouldn't be seemed like a horrible person. That boy posted a negative image of her to make her look bad which was the wrong thing to do especially because there wasn't no consent from thee girl who sent it to him. I say that teenagers aren't ready to engage in sexual activities responsibly because all they would end up doing is running to tell their friends and talking about it on social media without consent of their partner. Not just that but because most teens really just don't know to ask for consent for doing sexual activities or ask consent to post something of their partner which they shouldn't.

# data[].attributes.body
The video helped to shape my understanding of consent. This is because, I can now understand just how important consent is. This could say that teens are ready sometimes, its just a matter of if the person they're doing this with is a trustworthy person. Will this person respect your wishes, will they respect your privacy,. If you split apart, will they spread any private photos, videos, or information out of spite. Or will they delete it all in respect for you.

# data[].attributes.body
It shaped my understanding because she said that sexting wasnt necessarily a bad thing its just the privacy and the trust on that person.I could say that its up to the teens if they think they are ready because if they get consent i believe it wouldnt be as bad as getting none.

# data[].attributes.body
The video helped shape my understanding of consent because it gave multiple examples. I think this says that some teens are ready to engage in sexual activities as long as you trust someone. Then again you never know who you can and can't trust.

# data[].attributes.body
the vid taught me to be careful who you are giving consent to because they can turn against it. So teens gotta be careful who they are giving full consent to

# data[].attributes.body
It shaped it by understanding more how important consent is. I think that teens just have to know what engaging in sexual activity could lead to and understand how it could maybe hurt them.

# data[].attributes.body
What I learned from the video is that mostly teens are the ones who get arrested for child 🤬 even though it was just consexual sexting between both teens.I think teens are not really  ready because there’s always most likely consequences after all these sexual activities and encounters.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that it all depends on the teenager. Some teens may give consent to engage but then theirs others who don't feel comfortable enough to engage.

# data[].attributes.body
The video taught me a lot about the consequences of not asking for consent for example the girl that took her life when her boyfriend share a nude i age of her.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how in the video she explains on the story about the girl who did it and how she was blamed through out the school. And yet no one blamed the boy who did it. This help's understand more that doing sexual activity online is more of a internet security safety thing. Teens aren't ready or most teens aren't because most joke around.

# data[].attributes.body
i think that they should try to talk to their partner/lover about the stuff they wanna do in the relationship and be aware what might happen

# data[].attributes.body
It helped shaped my understanding that consent is always between two parties regardless of the act, and that people shouldn't criminalize people if they both consented to doing something with one another. In order for teens to be ready, they have to understand what consent is and have a general education of what 🤬 is, and what should be expected between both parties. As long as both parties are comfortable and give consent its good.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that teens should be more confident when speaking. Speak up, let people know what your thinking loud and proud. Don't be shy, scared, or embarrassed about your preferences or beliefs. Don't do anything you aren't comfortable with, especially if the person isn't a trustworthy person. Many things are better not being given out or posted. Keep things private. There is no need to give out personal pictures, videos, or information just because somebody said you "had to". If you don't want to, or don't want people having access to any of it, then don't do it. Don't give it out. Don't be afraid to speak your mind, just say "NO."

# data[].attributes.body
I believe teens should approach there communication behaviors by learning how to say things that they feel they shouldn’t hold back wether they scared or not they have to communicate because that’s just the only way everyone can know there feelings and what they are actually thinking in there head especially in a relationship with ur partner there has to be some type of communication because if there’s not it won’t work out.

# data[].attributes.body
i think that teens should speak up when in a relationship and voice their thoughts. Boundaries should be set with ones partner and make sure you say what you are and aren't comfortable with. Don't just assume that because you're in a relationship you owe your significant other something.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that if that person doesn't care about what they put out there then they can go ahead. If your not sure about having something personal out there then don't take the chance of it going out into the world.

# data[].attributes.body
Teens should be more careful as to what they share online because nothing is ever deleted once put online.

# data[].attributes.body
Teens should approach their communication behaviors by respecting other's privacy and asking for consent whatever the reason is. Also, by making sure they aren't posting things online which would make themselves and others look bad. Teens should understand the idea that once something out there, it's out there forever.

Reliable sources define consent because they are clear on what they will do and make people which wouldn't want to speak up feel comfortable to speak up. It's showing consent that anybody is able to speak up and call to get help in situations where it is just difficult and one isn't sure on what to do. The websites like loveisrespect.org, rain.org, and planned parenthood.org let one be able to talk to anybody and show the ways which they would be able to help that person, which is the main way of consent. This, in a way, matches how me and classmates describe consent because consent has to do with not being pressured, being able to be comfortable, and just clear on what it is that you want.

# data[].attributes.body
Reliable sources such as planned parenthood etc define consent as when someone agrees to do something sexual with u they make it clear what consent is ,I agree with planned parent hood because I believe consent is when u agree with someone to do something sexual.

These reliable resources define consent by making it clear to everyone. What consent is, how to give consent, what to give consent to, and when to give consent. Reliable sources like the ones stated above, give us vital information about parenthood, respect/proper behavior in relationships, how to know if something is wrong and what to do in those situations, etc... In a way, this matches what me and my classmates have said. I say this because, consent is when you give the okay to engage in intimate Things with your SO, or even for things that aren't as intimate. You aren't pressured, nor forced into things.

Age of consent in New York is 17.this shapes  my behaviors and thoughts about teen sexual activity because a lot of teens start having consensual 🤬 earlier than that age even if it isn’t legal a lot of teens involve themselves in sexting too younger than 17.But I do agree with the age if consent so young people can be safe and not put there selves in situations they will regret.

# data[].attributes.body
The NY laws regarding consent is that the age of consent is 17 years old to participate in consent for sexual activity. Another is that the age of 16 and younger aren't able to consent to sexual activity because it is statutory 🤬. These behaviors shape my behaviors because it helps me understand more that these laws help in order for ages under 16 to be safe. Not just that but so everybody knows that it is not okay to be in situations especially if you are under 16 where you are pressured to be in sexual activities.

# data[].attributes.body
These sources describe consent of having the permission to do something with someone else, especially in sexual acts. I also think consent can apply to verbal topics.

# data[].attributes.body
In NY, the consent law(s) state that the person has to be at least 17 in order to (legally) give consent. 16 and younger is illegal and can result in someone getting arrested for statutory 🤬. This can shape/alter your behaviors and thoughts about sexual activity and/or sexting. It could change them because, you could mess up your entire life by engaging in sexual activity/sexting while being anything younger than 17. You'd get in very serious trouble for engaging in these kinds of activities. You should wait until your at least 15-16 to consent to certain things, but not anything to intimate/sexual activity. But wait until at least 17-18 to start engaging in more intimate/ sexual activities.

# data[].attributes.body
This website defines consent as sexual intercourse between two people that are 17 and older. This doesn't match my definition of consesnt because I feel that consent is the agreement between 2 people to have 🤬, as long as theyre both within 3 years of each other.

# data[].attributes.body
The age of consent is 17 ages old in NY. I think that it can be up to what the consent is because kissing and 🤬 isn't the same thing. I think that kids aren't prepared that if something goes wrong they can take care of it so that's why i think the law says 17.

Consent is giving or having permission to do something. Contest is important because it’s something we all need in order to not have our boundaries crossed or to cross anyone’s boundaries. Consent looks/sounds like both people are on the same page and are okay with whatever the topic is.

# data[].attributes.body
Nowadays, most teens show a high self esteem but in reality have a low self esteem which causes them to act as if they know what they want but are actually shy or uncomfortable when the situation arises. I feel like confidence and maturity level plays a big role in most teens decisions, sexually.

# data[].attributes.body
This video helped shaped my understanding of what consent is because it really shows the importance of communication. This could say that teens should simply talk to their partner about any sexual activity before hand to make sure you both are on the same page and this just plays into how much you’re comfortable with the person and trust them.
