it does make sense, yeah. how much disappointment and miscommunication could be saved! how many people would be up for clearly negotiating friendship boundaries? i feel like there's a handful of people i could have that kind of conversation with (brian & matie leap to mind, and my body trust fam in general, deeply embedded in consent culture as they are) but other folks even having the conversation would feel like an edge - i suppose that's information, too. hmm. this is excellent food for thought.
