California recently passed a bill known as the “yes means yes” law, which requires positive affirmation of intent for sexual activities on college campuses. The new law states that silence or a lack of resistance does not constitute confirmation and any sexual activity taking place without consent would therefore be punishable as sexual assault. Furthermore consent can be revoked at any time and the previous affirmation would then be void. Proponents of this law applaud the California Legislature for taking the first step to end victim blaming. Instead of asking the victim if, how and when they said no, the investigation will shift its focus to the accused. This new law serves as a positive example to the rest of the country that it is time to take action against the epidemic of sexual assault on college campuses. But while progress is happening in California, there is troubling news closer to home.
