Knowing how to state, clearly, what you are feeling, and maybe even why. Because in the end, what I’m talking about is communication.

How to identify all the ways in which people coerce or pressure or push-sometimes without consciously knowing it-and not do those things. How to discuss the sex you’re about to have, even if you feel embarrassed or awkward talking about it. How to respond correctly to a no or “Cut!” or a safe word, which is to say: Never, ever less than fully and immediately.
