Relationships Question

My boyfriend keeps asking me to move in

Dear Lisa, Coming out is one of the most personal things that a person can do. It opens you up to a range of other people’s emotions, biases, presumptions and prejudices. To say it’s a tough gig is an understatement. If you ask some who’ve come out, they will tell you that it resulted in people they love rejecting them. For others, the experience was gentle and supportive. It could go either way.

It could be that she is a light sleeper, maybe you toss and turn or snore, or perhaps she just wants to sleep alone. A conversation will give you both an opportunity to address the issue and devise a solution that works for both of you. If there is no practical reason why, then you need to ask yourself, do I want to be in a  long-term relationship with someone who doesn’t want to sleep in the same bed?

It’s time we aligned sexual consent laws

Australian Federal Labor Senator Nita Green has moved to establish a Senate inquiry into sexual consent laws. These are the laws that describe how sexual consent is defined for rape and sexual assault offences.
