Welcome to Day 3 of your journey. Rejection can hurt, we can feel disappointed or upset but rejection is a very effective consent tool. Being good at consent means being good at rejection, why? Watch the video below to find out.

Questions for you to reflect on:

What are your patterns?​

  • When you're rejected, whether that's for a relationship, job, or any other kind of knock back how do you tend to react? 

  • How could you do things differently? 

  • How well supported are you by the people in your life?

If you would like to go deeper then try this exercise: 

  • Write a list of skills that are good to have if you are rejecting someone and if you are the one being rejected.

  • Are there any crossovers? 

  • How many of these skills do you have? 

  • How can you gain some of these skills?

Now we know a bit more about why being good at consent means being good at rejection, tomorrow we’re going to explore if being good at consent is a deeply political act itself.
