great article. One thing I always do with teenagers, is every time I see a negative example of ____, have a mini conversation and point it out. So in this case, every time you see something inappropriate on film or in public/private regarding consent, acknowledging that it isn't the way to do. It doesn't even have to be explicit, can be as simple as watching a non-consensual scene in a movie and commenting "wow that's messed up." The foundational conversation is so important, but often we need those consistent reminders especially since the outside world reinforces dangerous narratives (especially when it comes to consent in relationships)
