You decide where your boundaries are

We have different boundaries 
for how close we want 
other people to be. 

You have the right to decide yourself 
how close others may come. 

If you do not want someone to be close 
you can show this or say it. 

This way, you are showing where your boundaries are. 

We also have other boundaries. 

You have the right to decide yourself 
what is okay 
for someone to say to you 
or do to you. 

You also have the right to 
decide 
what you want to do 
and do not want to do. 

In a sexual situation 
it is especially important to 
think about boundaries. 

If you cross your own boundaries 
and do something you do not want to do 
you might feel bad. 

You might also feel bad 
if someone else 
crosses your boundaries 
and does not care 
what feels good for you. 

It can be hard 
to set boundaries and say no. 

But everyone can practice and learn how!
