Consent

No Consent without FRIES!

 

F. Freely Given.

Obviously this is not the case in the sex trade, it is bought.

 

R. Reversible – This means you can change your mind at any point. Again, impossible in the sex industry.

 

I. Informed – The exact opposite is true of the sex industries. People aren’t just uninformed they are actively mis-informed of the harmful realities.

 

E. Enthusiastic – for the sex and the person you are with, not the money you need.

 

S. Specific – for specific sexual acts.  You have no control over this in the sex trade, a punter is free to do what he wants.

This ‘FRIES’ definition of meaningful consent is widely taught in schools and recognised in law.
