The analysis here argues that understandings of consent are disconnected from how young people understand communication about sex. (from the abstract). In this paper, the author compares the way that young adults who engaged in heterosex talk about understanding and communicating their own and their partners’ willingness to have sex with how they talk about consent. This research is based on two sets of data, one from western Canada, the other from New Zealand. Record #4641 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0959353514539652 ER -
