Difference between sex and assault,

There is a significant difference between sex and assault, but often the two can cross lines. The only time sex and assault should ever cross or blur the lines is when it is consensual.

These were things I struggled with immensely when I was younger; I had an internal conflict about my views on the world and my sexual desires. My first real relationship was an abusive relationship, and I had the shit beaten and kicked out of me regularly. I was degraded and humiliated, and I had no self-esteem left when I finally ended the relationship.

Consent, consent, consent, this is the crucial difference between sex and assault; if I consent to any form of impact play, I am allowing this to happen. No one is doing anything to me without my consent. As a woman, I can decide what I want to happen to my body and how I want it to happen because I consented to it and enjoy it.

Consent is the difference between sex and assault. Unfortunately, consent is only learned later in life, usually after mistakes have been made.

Ever have a sexual encounter and kind of feel shit the next day? Like something was wrong? I have; I went with the flow, did something I wasn’t entirely into, and realized why I felt like such a shitty person the next day; I never consented and crossed a line I wasn’t comfortable with; this was my mistake. This is, unfortunately, our human nature; we only understand things once we have made these mistakes.

Understanding your limits and boundaries before engaging in sexual activities like BDSM is essential. This way, you know what you want to do and what you don’t want done to you.

The difference between sex and assault is consent; consent is crucial and necessary in everything that you do. It might be small and trivial to you now, but it could be the difference between a kinky encounter or a felony charge down the line.

There is a significant difference between sex and assault, but often the two can cross lines. The only time sex and assault should ever cross or blur the lines is when it is consensual.
