Safer Sex Myths – STD Prevention – Happy Hump Day Podcasts
It’s STD Awareness Month – Every Month!
Well, not really, but we think it should be!
During STD Awareness Month, this past April, we began doing research on all of the myths surrounding STDs. What we originally thought would last through the month has blossomed into a much larger series, because there were so many misconceptions out there, we didn’t want to exclude any of them.
As such, we’ve decided to continue our myth busting series, even though it’s no longer STD Awareness Month ‘officially’. We’ve dubbed it: ‘So True, So False!’, because we think we’re as cool as E!, of course, and, because promoting awareness, education, and acceptance doesn’t always have to be super-serious.
Really, though, these myths often perpetuate big problems: they keep people from getting tested, talking to partners, practicing safer sex, and all around being conscientious about their sexual health. So, this is kinda serious stuff too!
Today, we’re tackling a handful of myths – podcast style. Lucky you.
