" Would SB 967 have solved problems at UMass? It depends on precisely what you think “the problem” is. If it’s men having sex with women without first securing an active “yes,” then an affirmative consent law is perhaps an effective, if “unpretty,” solution. But if the problem is something deeper, to do with the psychosocial structures that make men want to have sex with women who don’t really want it, or make them feel that it’s their job to overcome a woman’s resistance, and that make women feel they must have sex with men when they don’t want to, it’s far less clear what a law like SB 967 achieves.
