Pagan Consent Culture

In this collection Druids Wiccans Heathens Polytheists and others show how to ground good consent practices in Pagan stories liturgies and values. Although many Pagans see the body and sexuality as sacred Pagan communities still struggle with the reality of assault and abuse. To build consent culture good consent practices must be embraced by communities not just by individuals-and consent is about much more than sexuality. Consent culture begins with the idea of autonomy with recognizing our right to control our bodies in all areas of life; and it is sustained by empathy the ability to understand and share the emotional states of others.
