Sexplanations: How To Be Safe When You're Having Sex

Have fun, be healthy.

In our 2018 Millennial Sex Survey, 28 percent of us said we'd never been tested for an STI. Without sounding too much like Mean Girls' Coach Carr, this is kind of concerning—especially considering diseases like gonorrhoea and syphilis are on the rise with young Australians. At the same time, having sex is fun. So why can't we do both? In this episode of Sexplanations, safety and inclusivity coordinator Kate Pern talks about how to broach the subject of sexual health and some realities around getting tested (hint: it's all good).
