Skins Sexual Health's Guide to Sexual Health Awareness
Sexual health can be a pretty taboo topic for all of us and a subject that not everyone feels comfortable discussing openly. Which honestly, is completely fine. We don’t have to be sharing every detail of what’s going on downstairs to have good sexual health. We do however have to be sharing to raise awareness. And Sexual Health Awareness Month gives those that do want to share, a platform and opportunity to do just that.
When we think of sexual health, I could put money on the majority of our minds jumping to STDs and whether or not we’re getting checked as regularly as we should be. Why? Because we hear about it! It’s spoken about more! And of course, this isn’t a problem, because it’s important, and we definitely should be getting checked more regularly. But this proves that the more something is spoken about, the more awareness is raised around it.
So, this year we want to take advantage of Sexual Health Awareness Month to speak about things you might not casually discuss with your mates in the pub on a Friday night. Things such as embracing pleasure and intimacy, respecting your body and others, and ensuring that you get the sexual experiences that you deserve.
And to celebrate, we’re offering 20% off sitewide until the end of September – just use code AWARENESS20 at checkout.
How Do I Embrace Pleasure?
Firstly, know that however often you crave pleasure, whether it be every day, twice a day or once a month, this is totally normal. Every single body is different and there is no right or wrong. But when you do, fully embrace it. It’s nothing to be ashamed of and is a completely natural part of being human! After all, we were blessed with sexual organs for a reason, right?
Your body is just that, it’s yours! So, feel free to FULLY explore it. On your own or with your partner, experiment and figure out the things you like and the things you’re not so keen on and if with a partner, ensure you take the time to learn about their wants and needs too.
