When you are getting consent do you ask them to say the words? Or like take a video of you two saying the words? Or do you just feel the room like normal respectful person? -Seriously asking.

You feel the room. You make a move and then you make sure they make a move before you make another. As tings progress you check in with your partners with questions like "is this ok", "do you like that" and the answers need to be unambiguous. It's a bit like being each other's cheer leaders and hyping each other up.

Another important thing that should be normalized is that women should also check in with men in the same way and if they dont men need to have the balls to call that out.
