People Who Should Never Ask to Have Sex With You – Part 2: Talkback Video

Usually, if people agree they want to have sex with each other then it’s ok. But there are some people in your life who should never ask to have sex with you – usually because they are your staff, or your family, or they have authority over you. In this talkback video, a Real Talk participant talks about why people in your family should never ask you to have sex with them.

Why We Talk About…

Surviving & Thriving

It might happen someday that a person does sexual things to us that we don’t ask for or say ok to. Or maybe we only say ok because we’re afraid of what might happen if we say no. If this happens to us, it’s never our fault – no matter what. We didn’t do anything wrong.
It might happen someday that a partner starts hurting us physically, or starts telling us we’re no good. Again, this isn’t our fault. We didn’t do anything wrong and we don’t deserve it.

If that’s happening to us now, what can we do about it? Who can help us?

If that happened to us in the past, it might still feel bad. Who can help us work through this? What if we’re interested in dating but also scared to trust someone? What can we do about that?

Want to be in a Real Talk video shoot?

We’re always looking for participants to be part of our next video shoot, where folks have conversations on dating, love, relationships and sex.
