Hi!
I see you've spoken many places around the world, which gives you a huge audience. It's awesome to see more people helping others to express their sexuality, cause I really do think people need to loosen up a bit more in regards to sex, at least to the point where purity or virginity are no longer worshipped.
My question, though, is do you spend any time talking about consent? It's a tricky thing, and a lot of people don't seem to fully understand how far and deep it must go. Canada has recently been shining the spotlight upon the Jian Ghomeshi lawsuit, which to me seems to revolve around the fact that consent may have been given at the start, but it was not on-going.
I also remember a recent poll (can't find results, sorry), where it said most teenagers, even girls, thought it was okay for a guy to force himself on the girl if she led him on, but then said no before penetration actually occurred, and various things like that.
In the BDSM world, consent is also a HUGE issue, with safe words and signals and all that. I've even heard stories from my own local community of people who were supposedly trusted members, but they crossed the line of the safe word and consent anyways.
How do you bring this up with your audiences, if at all?

Consent - we need to keep talking about it.
Thank you so much for your answer! I heartily agree, and I hope that society stops being scared of talking about it soon.

Which actor or actors (male or female) have you always wanted to work with? What would you do in order to be able to work with them?

Hi! Thanks for doing this AMA!
I'm a skater myself, in my 3rd year. I have switched teams a few times due to moving, but I've always been on smaller, B-level teams. On the small teams, I've noticed that there's usually a distinct set of cliques among skaters. Sometimes it's like there's the Cool KidsTM , and then everyone else, and the everyone else people can be excluded and tend to drift off and stop coming after a while.
My question is, does this happen at the higher level teams, too? Is it just a consequence of amateur sport in general, or at the higher level teams where you actually have to dedicate more of your life and try out for teams is there less of it?
I've always felt like on a team where you have to try out and you may not make it, where coaches can pick you based on how you work with the team, not just pick you to fill a roster because there's no one else, that there would be fewer people with attitude problems. Or, do you guys deal with personality conflicts as much as anyone?

I'm watching earlier seasons, and in Australia, one of the survivors said that he only pooped 3 times in the entire game - and it was fairly late in the game at that point. So it may not be as big a deal as you think. When you don't have much to eat, you won't have much to poop.
