« Cela est la base de toute la dynamique sociale. »
What is this mantra for?
Why
- Every person's dignity: no contact should ever be endured
- For you: clarity on what you want and don't want
- For others: a space where limits are recognized and respected
When
- Before initiating physical contact, even casual
- When you're not sure how the other person will react
- When someone around you seems uncomfortable or withdrawn
How
- Ask before touching — always, without exception
- Respect a refusal immediately, without negotiating
- Say clearly what you want and listen to the answer
