GK: The California state legislature has passed a law requiring college students to have affirmative consent for each step of intimacy in sexual encounters. It isn't enough that your partner doesn't say, Stop that, or Get away from me ---- your partner has to consciously agree that he or she is enjoying this and wants to continue. But what if your partner is shy about saying that he or she is having a good time ---- in other words, what if your partner is a Lutheran ---- then you need The Affirmation App for your iPhone ---- you don't have to say anything.....just press a button---- this says Okay So Far (SFX) and this says KEEP GOING (SFX) and this says WOW (SFX) and this says Do you need a break (SFX) and this says Don't you dare stop (SFX) and this says Stop right now (SFX) and this says, I am conflicted (SFX) and I find my own fear rather exciting (SFX) and I want to say NO and I want you to keep doing it (SFX) ---- Are you sure? (SFX). No, I'm not sure of anything (SFX) BUT I'm excited by uncertainty (SFX).
THE Affirmation App records all of the responses so you have evidence of affirmation and the App sounds an alarm when you cross over into the red zone, for example when one person said "I am excited by uncertainty" ---- that is not the same as affirmation, and so (LOUD BUZZER) and just to make sure you stop what you're doing, the phone dials 9-1-1 (BEEPS) and registers your location and in a few minutes (SIREN APPROACHING), help has arrived...
(TR IRISH: Okay, up against the wall. Leave your clothes right there. You have the right to remain silent. Gimme the phone.) And the officer takes the phone, which is like the black box in a downed aircraft, it tells exactly what happened when. He listens to the tape, and (TR IRISH: Okay, you----- a misdemeanor for public indecency. And you---- I'm letting you off this time, but don't trust a man like him ever again. Now get out of here before I change my mind.)
