WHY DRAW THE LINE
WHEN TO DRAW THE LINE
HOW TO DRAW THE LINE
When we look away from sexual violence we make it easier for the perpetrator to continue – and the violence. Every choice we make and every action we take – no matter how small – has the power to make a difference.
Consent matters. Consent is something that must be asked for every step of the way. What's more, texts of a sexual nature are types of sexual harassment and should not be allowed or accepted.
Getting involved doesn't have to be (and ideally shouldn't be) a big deal. You always have options:
- Let others know where you stand on sexual violence.
- Encourage your friend not to respond to the texts and to change her number.
- Check in with your friend and ask if she's ok.
