Statistically speaking, you or someone you know has experienced a sexual violation. There's also a high chance that you or someone you know caused one. Perhaps these incidents had a clear perpetrator and victim. Or maybe you've encountered one of the more complicated situations where it's not quite so obvious that one person intentionally hurt another. Violated focuses on that messy place of unintentional, thoughtless, or perhaps even reckless consent violations. It challenges us to rethink the way gender and dating norms, intentionality, and intoxication have come to frame our social understanding of sexual consent and discusses what you, your organizations, and your government can do to help reduce the scope of sexual violation. But more than anything, this book argues that we need to develop more realistic models of "good consent" for the world we actually live in.
