Welcome back to Six Minute Sex Ed, the podcast that helps people talk about sex, relationships, and growing up. Created and hosted by Sex Education Teacher Kim Cavill. Find her at www.teaandintimacy.com - https://twitter.com/sexposparenting - https://www.instagram.com/sixminutesexed/ This week’s episode is level two, which makes it more complex than my level one episodes and perfect for tweens, teens, and adults. We’re going to talk about sexually transmitted infections, or STIs. STIs and STDs, or sexually transmitted diseases technically mean different things: generally infections can develop into diseases, so STI means early stages of infection while STD means later stages where symptoms present. In day to day language, though, the terms are interchangeable. STI stats: https://www.cdc.gov/std/stats18/default.htm STIs basics: STIs come in three types: bacterial, viral, and parasitical. Bacterial STIs, such as syphillis, chlamydia, and gonorrhea are caused by bacteria and treated with antibiotics. Some bacterial STI’s are growing resistant to antibiotics, so it can take a few rounds of different medications to make them go away. Bacterial STIs are curable, but antibiotics don’t prevent future infections. Viral STIs, such as HIV, herpes types 1 and 2, and HPV are caused by viruses. They can’t be cured, but they can be managed, if treated early enough. Some can also be prevented by vaccines. Stay tuned for an upcoming episode about the cancer preventing HPV vaccine, which is available in the US to people ages 9 - 45 and highly recommended for young people between the ages of 11 - 13. Parasitical STIs are caused by parasites, such as trichomoniasis, or trich, and curable with medication. Planned Parenthood chat: https://www.plannedparenthood.org/online-tools/chat STI’s are preventable. You can prevent STIs with vaccines, such as the HPV vaccine, medications like PrEP, or pre exposure prophylaxis, which prevents HIV infections. You can also prevent STIs by using barrier methods of protection during oral, anal, and vaginal sex, hand sex or fingering, and genital skin to skin contact. Barrier methods include internal condoms that can be inserted into the vagina or anus, external condoms that go on a penis or penetrating object, gloves and cots for hand and finger sex, and dental dams for oral sex on anuses or vulvas. None of these methods reduce the risk of STI infection completely, but used properly and consistently, they’re extremely effective.

The Village Auntie advises that the best way to talk about pleasure with partners is to practice talking about pleasure by ourselves, first. We should explore what feels good individually and practice self-talk so that we can bring our wisdom into conversations with our partner(s).

We’re going to talk about Revenge Porn. What is it? Revenge porn is the nonconsensual sharing of someone’s private sexual images. Is it legal? No, but laws vary by state. Here’s a summary of the laws across the US: https://criminal.findlaw.com/criminal-charges/revenge-porn-laws-by-state.html Illinois laws regarding the sharing of private sexual images applying to minors: http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/documents/072000050K11-20.1.htm Is it ethical? No, sharing someone’s private sexual images without their consent is unethical. The law establishes a minimum standard of behavior that we’re supposed to abide by in order to keep each other safe, but our values and ethics are for raising the bar from “legal” to “good”. This isn’t just about legality, it’s about how we should treat each other as decent people. What to do about it: Here’s some resources: What to do if someone shares your sext: https://hellogiggles.com/news/if-someone-shares-your-sext/ Other resources: https://withoutmyconsent.org/resources/ https://withoutmyconsent.org/resources/how-do-i-get-help-for-what-im-feeling/ https://onlinesos.org/ https://www.cybercivilrights.org/welcome/about/ Rate and review the podcast wherever you listen!
