About the Event

Empowered Pleasure presents an STI Education Event: 

When polyam, queer, and kink folks look to learn deeper on STIs, we usually meet doctors and physicians who do not 

When poly, queer, and kink folks look to learn deeper on STIs, we usually meet doctors and physicians who do not speak or hold our sex-positive perspective. Dr. Evelin Dacker will present a sex-positive perspective on sexually transmitted infections.

She'll cover: * Creating a new story around STIs, a sex-positive and shameless one * Understanding HSV, HPV, and bacterial infections and how to reduce their effects on your intimacy * How to reduce STI transmission for non-monogamous, kinky, and queer people * The importance of testing and how to get what you need * Understanding STI transmission risks beyond PIV/PIA * How risk tolerance plays into our stigma and fears * The importance of understanding sexual networks * The importance of communication to reduce transmission

This event will include a presentation on the most common STIs (HSV, HPV, GC/Chlamydia, Syphilis, HIV) followed by a Q & A period. 

Everyone who registers will receive a copy of Dr. Dacker's STI Guide and a $10 discount on the DeSTIgmatize STIs eBook.
