What about encouraging men to talk with their partners about sex, find out what they do and don’t want to do, and get an enthusiastic “yes” before proceeding? Teaching men communication skills that will lead to a happy “yes” is more productive than ordering them to respect a “no,” especially since not all sexual violence survivors verbally say “no” when they’re being assaulted.

I wish women would be more forthcoming and eager to talk about sex. I wouldn’t call me ex a prude or anything, but getting her to talk about sex and express interest in specifics about what she liked would have been a godsend.

    This is true. When I was raped, I could hardly say no. It was painful and fast and I didn’t have time to react or fight....
