Mike Domitrz developed 'Can I Kiss You?' to promote healthy dating - CSMonitor.com: "Two young US soldiers went into a bar. As the night wore on, they noticed a man hitting on an intoxicated young woman.
When he offered to take her home, they stepped in and said they would go along to make sure she got there safely. At her house, the two refused to let the other man go inside, which prompted a fight before he stormed off. They called a cab to get home.
“They said it was worth it, because he was a risk to her,”"
"His talk, and his related 2003 book, “May I Kiss You?,” challenges people to always ask and receive consent before engaging in an intimate act, even a kiss. It goes on to show how people can intervene in problematic situations, just as the two soldiers did. And it explains how everyone can “open the door” for people they care about to confide in them if those individuals are survivors of sexual assault."
