7 September 2022: Declassify Sex Ed!
August 23rd, 2022 | Children and Young People, Events, News, Sexual and Reproductive Health
Join AWARE and friends for an afternoon of trivia, Q&A and conversation about sex ed!
Please note that this event will touch on sexual topics and is most suitable for those 18 years and up. We advise attendees younger than 18 to be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Maybe you’ve never been in a relationship before, but you want to be prepared for when the time comes. Maybe you’re worried that what everybody else knows about sex… you don’t know. Maybe you’re not sure if you’re doing things “correctly” (whatever “correctly” even means). What does porn get right and wrong? Or Netflix, for that matter? Or TikTok?
We all need to learn about sex, consent, relationships and more at some point. But it’s awkward, and embarrassing, and it can be hard to know who to trust. That’s why AWARE launched Sex Ed, Declassified in July: an online portal that empowers you to learn what you want to, in your own time and at your own pace.
This September, we’re going one step further with a live virtual event, where we’ll dig into your honest real-life experiences with sex ed – the good, the bad, the gross and everything else. Join AWARE and friends for an afternoon of hilarity, intimacy and eye-opening revelation!
We’ll kick off with a quick trivia game to test your knowledge on sex ed facts (with special prizes to be won). Then, Nicole Lim, host of Something Private podcast, will moderate an open conversation between three students, covering their favourite sex ed resources, their own embarrassing sex ed stories, and what they wish they’d known at a younger age. Lastly, you’ll get a chance to submit your own anonymous sex ed questions to our assembled local experts—including AWARE’s Tan Joo Hymn and Dr Angela Tan of Academy of Relationships and Sex—and get them answered on the spot, no strings attached.
This will be a safe space for wholesome, educational fun, and we hope to see you there!
You are welcome to give any amount you wish, though do note that Eventbrite requires a minimum contribution of $1. If you require a waiver of this minimum contribution, please feel free to email media@aware.org.sg.
Persons of all genders and nationalities are more than welcome to attend.
