"'Welcome to Consent is a fierce, funny, celebratory and extremely supportive young people's guide to saying no, saying yes and being ""the boss of your body.""' – Emilie Coulter, freelance writer and editor 'While one might think consent is a fairly straightforward proposition (""Yes means yes and no means no--right?""), the authors make clear from the get-go that there's a lot more nuance and complexity to consent than meets the eye.

Lucky is the young person who consents to read this book.' – Emilie Coulter, freelance writer and editor "
