Starting from the definition Lacan gave to psychical and sexual trauma, this book makes the distinction between the ambiguity of consent and the experience of coercion. Clotilde Leguil refers to the #MeToo movement, campaigns against femicides and Vanessa Springora's book Le Consentement (Consent), elaborating on the various degrees of coercion to demonstrate that desire is not drive and that forcing leaves an indelible mark on the individual. Beyond the legal and contractual approach of consent, this book elaborates on the crucial stakes, both clinical and ethical, that this distinction entails.
