Title 50 Shades of Yes: Feminist Re-Conceptualization of Sexual Consent as Affirmative, Communicative, Enthusiastic
Summary In response to the systemic problem of sexual coercion and violence from date rape to sexual assault a relatively new development of feminist thought offers as a solution a re-conceptualization of sexual consent as affirmative, communicative and enthusiastic. In my thesis, I provide an analytical framework for understanding of this re-conceptualization which includes a comprehensive model of the re-conceptualized sexual consent and critical assessment of the nuances of its three interconnected aspects. By analyzing the discourse produced by the proponents of this new model, I follow their overt and implied claims to the transformation of the dominant discourse on sexuality and elaborate on the sexual subject that emerges from this discourse, reclaiming and revising sexual citizenship.
