THE LINE is a film that explores the intersection of sexual identity, power and violence. How do we negotiate our boundaries as sexually liberated women? How much are we desensitized to sexual violence? Through conversations with football players, educators, survivors of violence, prostitutes, and attorneys, this personal film explores the “grey area” and the elusive line of consent. Email thelinemovie@gmail.com to invite this dynamic program to your campus or community.
Where Is Your Line? is the corresponding campaign; a movement urging young people everywhere to become more comfortable setting sexual boundaries, encourage verbal consent in sexual situations, and spread the word- that consensual sex is hot sex!

"The media, universities and the military aren’t the only institutions rife with rape myths. Health care institutions are also guilty of perpetrating them. As Karen Carroll explained (and audience members affirmed), all too often health care providers (HCPs), such as ER personnel, fail to remain objective when assessing and treating rape victims — they too have preconceived notions of what a victim “looks” like. But because HCPs are usually among the first points of contact for victims, it is absolutely vital they are compassionate and objective. Otherwise, they run the risk of discouraging victims from pursuing medical treatment and/or justice."

Dear Facebook - Take A Stand Against Rape Culture! →
The following are actual pages on Facebook: ”Raping your mates girlfriend to see if she can put up a fight”, “Kicking Sluts in the Vagina,” “I know a silly little bitch that needs a good slap,” and “Riding your Girlfriend softly, Cause you dont want to wake her up.” These clearly are in violation of Facebook’s own policies and need to be removed!
