consent counts

 

Fck Yes Foreplay

A selection of shorts addressing the question of consent, followed by a panel discussion that expands the conversation to include all that is relevant in this time of the #MeToo movement.

Moderated by writer/activist Camilla Saly-Monzingo, panelists Erica C. Anderson, Julie Keck and Jessica King, creators of the F*ck Yes series, which strives to provide informative and actually sexy models of pre-coital conversation, along with Dee Severe and Jimmy Broadway, lifestyle BDSM players and co-founders of Severe Sex Films, a company that aims to combine authentic BDSM with cinematic production values, and Alan Levy Esq. representing the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom and the organization’s Consent Counts program.

And the films include:
