You have lips, I have lips. I might want to kiss you but let’s use our lips to talk about it first. When doing consent training workshops, we discover how common it is for people to feel uncomfortable practicing consent in their lives. Consent is a muscle and like all others, in order to work it needs practice. One big challenge people face when starting to ask for consent is finding the balance between giving space for the other person to say no, yet maintaining the sexiness of the situation. In practice however, the thrill of asking for consent is fun and creative. Do you remember your first kisses? Butterflies? The uncertainty, hesitance and awkwardness are all cues that consent is being practiced. You’re alive to the possibility of someone saying “no”. Lets be clear: not everyone likes kissing and not all folks are in relationships and that’s awesome!

For those who are interested in kissing*:

*Bear in mind that inviting kissing in any of these ways requires an appropriate context (more on that later)

“Would it be okay if I kissed you on the lips?”

“would you like me to lean closer and put my lips on your neck?”

“Would you be willing to kiss me right now?”

“Welcome to kissville, population us?”

Our Favourite: “Can I kiss you?”

“Can you kiss me?”

“Can you kiss me softly?”

“I would love to kiss you right now, if you’re into it. Are you?”

“How comfortable would you be with kissing right now?”

Try this: Lean towards someone and offer them your cheek. Give them eye contact while tapping your cheek. If your partner responds to that, try tapping on other parts of your face or body. Write your request on a piece of paper and pass it on a note. Part of practicing consent is being comfortable with saying and receiving “no” as an answer. This can also be challenging for people to get used to. Here are some ways to practice:

“No.”

“Nope.”

“Nah.”

“Not now, but check in with me later.”

“No thanks”

“Not now.”

“Not here, maybe somewhere private?”

“Not into it.”

“No, I’m sick”

And finally, ways to respond to receiving a “no”.

“Thanks for being honest”

“Thanks for being so rad”

Our Favourite: “Okay, cool!”

Kissing a friend can be exciting if you’ve developed feelings for each other, but sometimes it can make things awkward between you. If you want to stay just friends after a kiss, you may need to take a break from your friend for a while to process your feelings. When you’re ready, talk to them about the kiss and express your feelings and concerns. Say something like, “Our friendship means a lot to me. I hope what happened hasn’t hurt things between us.” If possible, come to an agreement with your friend about how to move forward. For example, you might agree not to kiss again, or promise each other not to tell your other friends what happened. Keep having open conversations with your friend if you still feel confused. It may take a while to work through things together, and that’s okay. Spend time with your friend and do the same kinds of activities you did together before the kiss. If you stick to your routines and keep things relaxed between you, the awkwardness should start to pass. For tips on how to avoid feeling jealous following your kiss, read on!
