Consent does not just apply to sex. It goes for anything. Whether that is hugs, or a pat on the shoulder, or even a handshake.
People also do not need to disclose their trauma as validation for why they do not want to be touched. People are allowed to say “no” to any form of contact, whether they have trauma or not.
Quit taking “please don’t touch me” as a personal attack on you.
Respect people’s bodies. Respect their boundaries. Please.
hey. if you’re a parent and you read your kids texts for ANY REASON (other than you believe they’re in danger or going to harm themselves) YOURE A PIECE OF SHIT. QUIT VIOLATING YOUR CHILDREN’S PRIVACY, THATS WHY THEY DONT TRUST YOU.
