Have you ever wondered what sexual health actually means? In this episode, we open up the conversation on sexual health, from sex, STDs/STIs, pleasure, orgasms, feeling uncomfortable talking about sex, etc? We also cover how sex and libido can change over the course of a woman's life, and how an ObGyn can support you along the way. I am joined with my co-host and good friend, Touseef Mirza.
In this episode of That's Total Mom Sense, we sit down with Tamara Mason, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Program Manager for the Department of Defense, who's making waves on social media for her honest approach to parenting and teen wellness. Tamara went viral on TikTok after creating a heartfelt PowerPoint presentation for her teenage daughter, covering everything from platonic relationships to safe sex, STDs/STIs, and the importance of open conversations at home. As a former teen mom herself, Tamara shares her journey of empowering her daughter with the knowledge and confidence to navigate relationships safely and responsibly. We discuss why it's crucial for parents to have “the talk” early and often, how to break generational cycles of silence, and tips for making these conversations approachable—no matter your child's age. ✨ Check out Tamara's presentation for your family here and watch her TikTok video here.

Sex Within Marriage Podcast : Exploring Married Sexuality from a Christian Perspective
A few years ago, I was talking to a client during a coaching call, and we got off on a bit of a tangent about condom use. I explained a few ways that people tend to lower the protection of condoms when they use them. He was, well, shocked because he'd done many of them and had no idea that every time he did that, he was increasing the chance of conception. And so, I've had this post idea on the back burner for quite a while until last week, when I mentioned in response to an anonymous question that if you don't want kids, you shouldn't have sex because even condoms and birth control are not perfectly effective when used correctly - and most people don't know they're not using them correctly. When I posted that, one of our supporters asked if I could write that post, so here we go, because, well, my supporters do so much for me, I'm happy to help them out. In this post, I'm only talking about the birth control effects, not the effect this could have on STDs/STIs. I'm also not going to address every birth control method, just the three I hear about the most. I'm also not going to be discussing natural family planning, but that is, at best, a delay method, not a method of birth control. So, here are things you may be doing to mess up your birth control plans.
How comfortable did Dr. Jenn feel as a woman in Dubai? Why do teenage girls have the highest rates of STDs/STIs? And what has unexpectedly helped Clint with his back pain?
You aren't the same person you were last year, or the year before that. Let yourself experience things and allow yourself to contemplate how these things make you feel. It's worth it. Game of Thrones spinoff House of Dragons premier, 10 out of 10? Yes! STDs/STIs! STOP SHAMING PEOPLE!!!!

"Everyone should know these facts, DO YOU? There is no method of contraception that is 100% effective. A woman who does not use any form of birth control has an 85% chance of getting pregnant within one year. For birth control methods to be effective, they must be used correctly and consistently. Taking medications, such as antibiotics, can reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills. When used correctly, condoms (rubbers) can greatly reduce the risk of pregnancy and STDs, such as Herpes, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Chlamydia, Hepatitis B, and AIDS. About 1 in 5 people in the U.S. currently have an STD/STI, and more than half are youth ages 15-25 years old. About 50% of all people will get an STD/STI at some point in their lifetime. Every year, there are about 20 million new cases of STDs/STIs, some of which are curable. STDs can be passed from one person to another through vaginal, anal, or oral intercourse. Some STDs, such as syphilis and herpes, can be passed through kissing. Birth control pills and diaphragms do not protect against STDs. Though the likelihood of getting genital warts can be decreased by condom use, contagious warts may exist elsewhere (such as on the buttocks, inner thighs, and outer lips). Dental dams or plastic wraps need to be used in oral sex to prevent the transmission of STDs. For additional protection against pregnancy, latex condoms can be used in conjunction with a spermicide. (However, if a person is allergic to spermicide, the resulting irritation can increase the potential for sexually transmitted infection). When using a latex condom, it is very important that you DO NOT use an oil-based lubricant (such as massage oil, baby oil, or Vaseline). Oil can damage the latex very quickly destroying the condom. (Use water-based lubricants, such as Astro glide, K-Y jelly, or liquid instead). Many people with STDs, such as Gonorrhea, HIV+, Chlamydia, and Herpes, show absolutely NO visible symptoms. Medical tests can determine if you or your partner have an STD. Some STDs can be easily treated and cured. Some STDs may stay in the system causing health problems or requiring medications forever. Some STDs, such as Chlamydia and Gonorrhea, can cause sterility in a man or a woman, rendering them unable to ever conceive a child. The more sexual partners you have the greater your risk of acquiring an STD." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support

Hello friends! I know I'm late bringing you this episode but I have been extremely busy lately so here's a longer episode where I really dug deep and did some research into various STDs/STIs and even talked about my encounters. Sex ed in grade school wasn't taught in a way that created space for exploration without shame so let's change that narrative. Do what you wish with this information but I really hope you are out here having responsible and well informed sex. Follow @theFunsexual on IG for announcements, funny memes and some more of me

How often do you get tested? Jonathan and Dee discuss STDs/STIs and how to be a responsible human. If that sounds boring, the conversation derails many times, so we promise it's not boring.
Even though sex sells in this economy, sex education and open convos about sex between parents and children seem to be taboo. So are STDs/STIs in our society. In this episode we talk about the significance of sex education and tell stories about what it should look like and didn't look like in our lives. Just like we should be wearing masks to protect ourselves and others from COVID-19, we MUST wear condoms to protect ourselves and our partners. There's so much more to sex than meets the psyche, especially for women. You're gonna wanna hear this one
Sup kids, this week the pod is back with a chat about sexually transmitted diseases, infections and other various ailments, the stigma around them and that Katie really wants a porno robe to wear to her Zoom birthday party. In a world that is doing nothing but talking about one particular virus, we thought we'd take this time to teach about some other far more long-standing and honestly more common ones. These viruses and conditions range from very curable, to treatable to at least manageable. There are some personal tales in here because, you know, having these issues is not uncommon. Getting an illness from another human, as we are now very aware, is very easy. Having that illness affect your person-bits is really what causes the stigma these diseases, their education and their treatment face. So hopefully this makes things a little less weird the next time you or someone you know feels a little itching or burning.

We're back bitches! Happy 2020! This is the first episode of season 2 and it's a long one (you're welcome). Trigger warning: this episode talks about eating disorders and sexual assault. Yes, they are heavy topics but that doesn't mean we should shy away from them. In fact - silence and secrecy can be dangerous, so let's start talking! This episode we also cover a ton of other things: we share our 2020 resolutions, go over my surgery details, recap December and January, share more stories about annoying people on Instagram, condom use & STDs/STIs and most common questions/remarks from clients in the strip club. Finally, we tackle the first round of questions of 2020: how do I stay safe and set boundaries when arranging a sugar daddy meet? How do you clarify with a client that he needs to pay you for a date? How can a client protect himself from online scams or stings? Do clients like smart girls or does it intimidate them? What's the most fulfilling part about sex work?

Today's episode of the Urology Care Podcast is about sexually transmitted infections (STIs). STIs are also commonly called sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). According to the CDC, there are more than 20 known types of STDs/STIs. In addition, over 20 million people in the United States are infected each year.
It would not be responsible to have open and frank discussions about sexuality if we are not going to talk about the importance of safe sex. In this episode, we discuss the basic facts of STDs/STIs as well the stigma behind this topic and prevention methods. So much information is available yet underutilized and sometimes even used improperly.
My parents never gave me the sex talk, let alone tell me anything about sexuality and STDs/STIs. He's fierce, he's intelligent and he's the LEAST vanilla person I know: Jeffrey Liang. He's a drag queen performer and an amazing dancer from the Los Angeles area. He is here to talk about a topic that some people feel awkward about BUT SHOULDN'T!! It's time we open the floor to learn more about HIV.

SEX FEELS SO GOOD. WE LOVE SEX. AND SEX IS BETTER WITHOUT "bumps", "pistachio milkshakes", "crabs", and all the other creepy crawly microscopic friends that non-consensually join us for a three-some. We want you to have the best sex ever, and continue to have the best sex that you have ever had. But as we mentioned in our previous episode on good sex- good sex is SAFER SEX and the SEXIEST SEX is the SAFEST SEX. Not convinced? Don't want to listen to a podcast about STDs/STIs... just give it a listen. You might surprise yourself with some laughs, some tears, and WAY more knowledge about pistachio milkshakes and bumps than you ever wanted to know.
Think this episode doesn't apply to you: it does. This episode is a must listen: for yourself, for your partner(s), for your children, for your unborn children, for your friends, for your family, for all of humankind. This isn't just about STDs/STIs, it's about respecting yourself and humanity. You'll finish this episode educated, informed, enlightened, and empowered. And we hope you feel love and respected too.
