Activity 10.1: Consent Confirmation - Did she say YES? Did he mean NO?

Duration: 5 minutes
Materials: Give each student a card with YES on one side and NO on the other. You can print these on coloured paper (Yes - green, No - red) and laminate them to use multiple times.

Activity: Ask your students to imagine that you go to their house and ask them (without their parents; knowledge) to borrow their car/motorcycle keys.

Ask students to hold up your YES or NO card for the following answers:
  • "I don't know"
  • "Maybe"
  • "Hold on"
  • "Ok"
  • "Let's go slower"
  • "I don't want to get in trouble"
  • "My parents will be home soon"
  • "I guess so"

Which responses to asking permission were unclear? When you don't know, ask!

Discussion:
  • ​Explain that giving permission for something to happen to you or something you own (e.g: 'Yes, you can drive my car', or 'yes, you can kiss me.')
  • Consent includes a question and an answer. Asking to have sex is not enough, you have to listen to and respect the answer. It includes verbal or non-verbal but can be confusing; so ASK!
  • When you smile, is it because you are uncomfortable or turned on? Also remember that it is not just the guy's responsibility, but an agreement that should be decided together.

Activity 10.2: Myths about Rape - TRUE or FALSE?

Duration: 10 minutes
​
Are these statements below true or false? Ask the students why they think so.
  • Rape happens because men have too much sexual energy [FALSE]
    • Rape is not an "over-spill' of sexual energy. It is not an impulsive crime.
  • Most rapists are strangers who follow you home at night [FALSE]
    • A high percentage of rapists are accquaintances, "friends" and relatives.
  • For every 1 rape case that is reported, 9 go unreported [TRUE]
    • Most cases of rape are not reported due to stigma, victim blaming and no awareness of where to seek help.
  • Girls are raped because they wear revealing clothes that turn men on. [FALSE]
    • Rape is not promoted by provocative dress. Many students, women in tudung and women of all ages have been raped.
  • There is no punishment for rapist, so it is better to remain silent after a rape [FALSE]
    • Section 376 of the Penal Code states that whoever commits rape shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to twenty years, and shall be liable to whipping. Good reporting and support chains improve conviction rates.
  • A husband is allowed to rape his wife because that is his right [FALSE]
    • Martial Rape is not legally recognized but the new Section 375A states any husband causing fear of death or hurt to his wide in order to have sex shall be punished for term which may extend to five years.
