Hey!
I recently came across this article called Aussie ‘Eco-Sexuals’ Are Shunning Condoms To Save The Environment Amid STI Explosion which talks about the rising popularity of “ecosexuals” who are concerned with the environmental concerns of non-biogradable condoms and compares this trend to the rising numbers of people in Australian diagnoses…[Read more]

Thanks so sharing @nurse_nettie! Who knew the internal/female condom could be used for anal sex how interesting!
I’m kind of interested to try the internal/female condom for vaginal sex! Has anyone ever tried it?

Hi guys,
I’m in a long term relationship and recently I’ve noticed me and my partner are having way less sex then we used too when we first got together. Recently we’ve been super tired and stressed with work and seem to not make the time for sex as much as we used to 🙁
Has anyone else been through this?
Anyone have any tips on how to keep…[Read more]

Hi @yogigirl, thank you for the update! Glad to hear you have a great doctor that’s so important! And yes, a very good excuse o eat well and exercise.

Hi @PotPlant Thanks for sharing! I love to hear that!
My partner and I are still working from home nearly one year on and we have worked hard (through trial and error and LOTS of communication) on making positive habits of working from home together and now we bicker much less haha!

Hi @nurse_nettie I was wondering if you have any information or resources on how to do a breast check? This is something I don’t know much about but want to learn 🙂 And is this something young people should be doing? Thanks!

Hi @yogigirl also sorry to hear you’re going through this and are feeling this way
🙁 I also was diagnosed with PCOS a few years ago and it is hard! My biggest recommendation is to make sure you look after your mental health, my body image and depression took a big hit with the weight gain I experienced from PCOS. Mental health is so important…[Read more]
curiousss replied to the topic Spill the beans. What’s your best or worst dating story? in the forum Sexual Health 2 years, 10 months ago
I once went on a date with this guy from Tinder and it was so strange! About 45 minutes in things were going fine, we were getting to know each other but no major sparks between us. He interrupts me mid-sentence to ask if he could kiss me. I was kind of taken back as and wasn’t sure as I felt I didn’t really know him at all so I said “No not right…[Read more]
curiousss replied to the topic Masturbation and Shopping for sex toys in the forum Sexual Health 2 years, 10 months ago
I ordered my first sex toy online cause I was intimidated of adult stores! I was about 20. A few months later I plucked up the courage to walk into a sex shop in Soho London. I realised how normal it was and how nice and respectful the staff were and never looked back – I walk in my local store Max Black in Newtown (such a great shop) all the time…[Read more]

I agree! Communication is everything. I always make sure I communicate before, DURING and after sex what I would like and what turns me on.

curiousss replied to the topic Consent on TV in the forum Sex & Relationships 3 years, 6 months ago
I love seeing consent shown on TV! I think its so important to normalise consent and show people what is looks like and how normal and vital is it. We mimic so much from what we see.
I need to start Normal People asap, I’ve heard so many good reviews!

Oooh thanks @goldenrose what a great article!
I really agree communication is so important I’m definitely going to be as open as I can about how I’m feeling and my concerns about having space.
Definitely going to try and designate our areas and we’re lucky we have two areas to spend time in.
I liked the part in the article about spending time…[Read more]
