Summary:
"Have you ever heard the phrase "It's easier to
ask
forgiveness than permission?" Violating
consent
isn't limited to sexual relationships, and our discussions around
consent
shouldn't be, either. To resist rape
culture
, we need a
consent
culture--and one that is more than just reactionary. Left confined to intimate spaces,
consent
will atrophy as theory that is never put into practice. The multi-layered power disparities of today's world require a response sensitive to a wide range of lived experiences. In
Ask
, Kitty Stryker assembles a retinue of writers, journalists, and activists to examine how a cultural politic centered on
consent
can empower us outside the bedroom, whether it's at the doctor's office, interacting with law enforcement, or calling out financial abuse within radical communities. More than a collection of essays,
Ask
is a testimony and guide on the role that negated
consent
plays in our lives, examining how we can take those first steps to reclaim it from institutionalized power"--From publisher.
"A collection of essays by writers, journalists and activists exploring the role of
consent
in confronting power structures in day-to-day life"--From publisher.
