consent signaling

Consent signaling is the way individuals communicate their willingness to engage in an activity or interaction. It involves expressing agreement or approval, either explicitly (such as saying “yes” or using clear language) or implicitly (through positive body language or actions). Effective consent signaling ensures that all parties understand each other's comfort levels and boundaries, fostering respectful and safe interactions. Clear consent is ongoing and can be withdrawn at any time, emphasizing mutual understanding and voluntary participation.
