Sexting, Sending Nudes, and Setting Boundaries

Navigating digital dating and sex can be complicated but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be fun.

On Tuesday, I talked to author Ali Drucker about her delightfully titled new book, Do As I Say, Not Who I Did: Honest Advice on Hookups and Relationships in College. One of Drucker’s first rules is that “no” is a full sentence, and consent can always be withdrawn. Consent should be given in every sexual encounter, and that includes sexting and sending nudes. Today I’m going to talk about how to set sexual boundaries even when digitally dating.
