🎙️ STIs Don't Play Favorites—So Let's Talk About Testing! 🎙️

On this episode of Supersex, we’re taking the gloves off and getting real about STI testing and sexual health. Sherman and I are kicking things off with a truth bomb: STI rates can be just as high in monogamous relationships as in the swinger community. We’re sharing our own awkward and sometimes painful experiences, all to drive home one crucial point—regular STI checks are a must for everyone, no matter who you’re with or how you identify.

Curious about why chlamydia is called the "silent threat" or how syphilis can turn deadly? We’re breaking it all down, from the symptoms you need to know to the complications you definitely want to avoid. We’re diving into the details of chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, HSV, and more, offering up practical advice on prevention, vaccinations, and why routine testing should be on everyone’s to-do list.

Straight men, listen up—we’re talking to you, too! It’s time to face the facts: STI awareness isn’t just for the queer community. Starting and ending every relationship with a clean bill of health is a responsibility we all share, and we’re here to make sure you’re in the know.

And we’re not stopping there. We’re tackling the big misconceptions around HIV and the discrimination gay men still face when it comes to blood donation. Sherman’s sharing a personal story about being turned away from a blood bank, despite being celibate for nearly a year. We’re calling out the hypocrisy and shining a light on the game-changing power of PrEP and PEP in HIV prevention.

Finally, we’re giving a big shout-out to the M Clinic in Perth for their inclusive and accessible sexual health services. Join us for an episode that’s going to flip the script on how you think about STI testing and sexual health—forever.
