How Consent is More Than Just a Question and an Answer | Cheryl Bradshaw | TEDxQueensU

Even after #MeToo, we still don't properly understand consent - until now. In this talk, the author of Real Talk About Sex and Consent, Cheryl Bradshaw, explains the vital missing information about true and total consent. Understand how consent is irrevocably tied to safety, and how sometimes "yes" actually means "no," because the question should never have been asked in the first place. CHERYL M. BRADSHAW, R.P., B.Ed, M.A., is a registered psychotherapist and author of three books: Real Talk About Sex and Consent; How to Like Yourself; and The Resilience Workbook for Teens. Each has been a #1 New Release on Amazon, and featured on various television and radio shows, articles, and podcasts, including Breakfast Television, Global’s The Morning Show, and Today’s Parent.
