In the later years of the second Obama administration, affirmative consent was all the rage. Affirmative consent refers to the idea that "no means no" doesn't cut it; when it comes to sex—or even kissing—all actions must be explicitly and affirmatively agreed upon.
There's nothing wrong with affirmative consent as an ideal, though some may argue it's the antithesis of erotic. But affirmative consent as a legal standard is unworkable and dangerous. And as a feminist standard, I think it leaves a lot to be desired too.
Alas, affirmative consent back, in the form of a very anachronistic bill in Utah.
