 And the brand new show euphoria on HBO, Sydney Sweeney plays Cassie and in this video we're going to be talking about episode one and a very important subject which is consent. What is up everybody this is Chris from the Rewired Soul where we talk about the problem but focus on the solution and if you're new to my channel what I like to do is take different topics from movies, TV shows, pop culture and I'm doing a bunch of character breakdowns for the new show euphoria so if you're into that stuff make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell because there's always a ton of lessons to be learned and by the way I have been reading your feedback a lot of you can relate to this show already a lot of you have mentioned anxiety so make sure you're following me on Instagram and Twitter at the Rewired Soul because I'm currently writing my new book Rewire Your Anxiety and I'm giving away a bunch of free copies for the launch all right so make sure you're following me at the Rewired Soul on Instagram and Twitter all right so yeah let's talk about Sidney Sweeney's character Cassie and kind of like in my last video about Zendaya's character Rue I might just you know change these and talk about Cassie Sidney Sweeney same person all right so first off first off my beautiful girlfriend Tristan and I we're like sitting there watching we're like wait this this girl Cassie she looks familiar what is she from so fun fact Tristan and I have recently binge-watched Handmaid's Tale and like now we're caught up so now we have to wait like the rest of the world for new episodes but anyways we noticed Sidney Sweeney from Handmaid's Tale where she played Eden so I've also thought about doing some videos to see what lessons we can learn from Handmaid's Tale if you're watching Handmaid's Tale let me know down in the comments below so I know if that's something I should make videos on maybe pull some topics because there's like a million topics from Handmaid's Tale that I could discuss and see what we can relate to to try to you know learn from it and improve our own mental health all right so anyways let's discuss Sidney Sweeney in Euphoria as Cassie all right so we're first introduced to her you know as a character and like there's like this kind of like little bro party going on like I thought it was kind of weird cuz like you know I was like I don't know on sports teams and stuff and aside from the locker room like that scene never really happened like that's one of the reasons I asked you guys if you can relate to it like just like a bunch of like topless dudes just like chilling together I was like yeah that never really happened in my hood but anyways one of the dudes he was he was talking about you know having a thing for Cassie and hooking up with her right and anyways they're like oh dude like like by the way they use the words like a lot in this show I was really interested like I'd be fascinated to know how many times they said either or in that episode all right so by the way if you're watching this like young men out there try to chill out with that language not good okay be a damn gentleman a lot of these videos actually about being a gentleman so if you know anybody who sucks at being a gentleman and doesn't really understand what consent is make sure you share this with them but anyways they were talking like oh you don't know about her and they start showing him you know some pictures and some videos and everything like that and he's like is that even her you know whatever but anyways it was pornographic in nature so the first thing we want to talk about is revenge porn and on the topic of consent like do not do not ever ever ever ever film somebody doing a sexual act without their consent like this actually just happened like in where was in Korea like some k-pop star or something like that or he was like a manager or something something like that but anyways he just got in a lot of legal trouble for filming sexual acts with women like never ever ever ever do this without another person's consent but on the topic of revenge porn if you don't know what revenge porn is it is distributing these like photos or videos without the other person's consent like that is a felony in almost every single state here in the United States all right so what that means is even if the person does give you consent to take pictures or film that sexual act you do not go and release it without their consent okay it is illegal it's not cool it's a dick move like here's the thing too so back back in my day I'm about to turn 34 so like right when I was in high school like the cell phones we had were like those Nokia cell phones like with snake do any of you remember those and like the coolest thing you do with the phone is like swap out the faceplate and stuff but anyways like not even everybody I knew had a cell phone I didn't even have a cell phone in high school but like I can't imagine being a young woman or a young man like during this time we're like smartphones or in everybody's hands you know what I mean because yeah I'm sure this happens a lot more than we even know about and here's the other thing like I asked how old all of you were who are watching this show you for you like listen okay this is a very very real story okay so I have a friend and their their brother or their brother's friend somebody something like that I heard the story a while ago anyways they were in high school okay and this kid was 18 years old and he received nudes from another girl at his school he then shared those nudes well since he was 18 he got in trouble for distributing child photos okay I don't want to get demonetized so you know what I mean but anyways not only digging in trouble for that but that is a sexual offense you will go on a list all right so don't be dumb be respectful and make sure you have consent and don't do it if they're underage all right so the next thing that we're gonna talk about so they were like oh yeah man she's into that freaky stuff you know what I mean so anyways when the dude and Cassie finally get together all alone in the room and stuff and they start kissing and they're about to engage in this sexual act right and like he's getting all geared up and she's getting ready or whatever and he like jumps on top of her and he starts to you know choke her so she freaks out all right obviously so let's talk about a couple things obvious obviously there is like main consent right and like this is something like I don't even know why it has to be explained so much like I know when you're like in the moment and stuff it's like oh should I go do I ask or you know whatever like like yes all right like I am a firm believer in CYA cover your ass all right ask are they cool if you kissing them are you cool with you know doing whatever it is ask make sure you have consent okay if they don't consent then that ain't cool all right that is a salt brother all right so anyways now let's talk about kinks like if you are into some freaky stuff you do your thing baby do your thing everybody has their own things do what you want to do all right explore do all sorts of stuff in the bedroom but make sure you got consent first all right so the way this played out with Sydney Sweeney's character and this dude and sorry I forgot that guy's name but anyways like she freaks out and then he feels how awkward and dumb because he assumed I was actually wondering if he was gonna say like oh well my friend saw me so he kept his mouth shut on that but anyways he was all embarrassed and ashamed and everything like that but then she said well you know next time if you're gonna do that like at least ask me first and then she kind of like gives him like that sexy look like or if I tell you to do it to me right and like yeah that's cool like if you want to explore stuff in the bedroom like just make sure it's cool with both people by the way since I'm on the topic this isn't just for women either all right like this is for guys too and here's what I mean by that all right without getting too graphic and there's one of the most sexual videos I've ever made on my channel but screw it we're already in there baby all right listen like women like make sure you get consent from a dude before you do some weird stuff and put your finger in places all right that is something you also need consent for but anyways anyways discussing this stuff like make sure you have a conversation like a good rule of thumb a good rule of thumb is like do not jump into that stuff like the first time you're hooking up with somebody like oh my god like just play it safe like maybe just do you know just like the casual normal stuff in the beginning unless some conversation happens but just surprising somebody the first time you hook up is never ever ever a good idea all right but anyways have these conversations and like what I would recommend like do some research if this is something that you're like interested in exploring and stuff like that like there are plenty of like YouTube channels and hell it's 2019 you can find stuff online like there are people who are into that and they're like educators in that realm and they'll discuss safe ways to do this and things like that like you know obviously like what most of us have heard about are like things like safe words and all that because especially when you're getting into like some sort of asphyxiation like that is some dangerous business right there okay so make sure that you communicate throughout the whole process and make sure you're protecting yourself all right don't have any you know unplanned pregnancies there's a bunch of STDs and stuff and god I sound like an old man in this video but anyways it looks like Sidney Sweeney is going to have you know a lot to do with the show euphoria it looks like in this scene that I have right here in a later episode looks like she's having some kind of anxiety attack or anything like that so if you like me doing these kind of character breakdowns like I loved doing them for 13 reasons why and I'm kind of seeing something similar with this show so this is something you like me doing let me know down in the comments below and like make sure you're following me on Instagram and Twitter if there are certain characters or topics you want me to discuss with specific characters and how it pertains to real life and everything like that like just hit me up hit me up on the DM or tweet at me or whatever it is all right but anyways anyways that's all I got for this video if you liked this video please give it a thumbs up if you're new make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell
