I think in addition, you're looking for an enthusiastic yes, and an absence of "no" is not implicit consent.

    i mean you're explicitly talking sexual consent, i'm just talking consent.

    Not necessarily. In what other context would you say my comment doesn't apply?

    contracts. you don't need enthusiastic yes, you both just need to agree. sometimes reluctant yesses from all sides work out because you've negotiated a middle ground that has a compromise that is not quite what you all want, but works out positively enough for each side.
