“Consent” (The affirmative definition)

Consent refers to the clear, voluntary agreement to engage in a specific activity, often in the context of personal relationships or interactions. It means that all parties involved understand what they are agreeing to and are able to say “yes” without any pressure, coercion, or manipulation. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, and it should be informed, meaning that individuals know what they are consenting to. Importantly, consent must be given by individuals who have the capacity to make that decision, such as being of legal age and mentally capable of understanding the situation.
