Online sexual consent forms are not a get-out-of-jail-free card; they are a tool to reduce ambiguity and misunderstanding.
What They Can Do
- Facilitate specific communication beforehand
- Leave a traceable record
- Reduce cognitive gaps
What They Cannot Do
- Cannot override the law
- Cannot negate the right to withdraw consent
- Cannot guarantee the absence of disputes
Using them maturely is more important than whether or not they are used.
