Center Youth: Lights Out (Sex Education Workshops)

February 22 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Join us for a queer sex education workshop! This weekly session will touch on different topics each week. We'll discuss everything sex-related, including consent, the signs of healthy and unhealthy relationships, STI's and safer sex, as well as pleasure.

WORKSHOP TOPICS THAT WILL BE COVERED:

 February 1- Consent: 

  • Identify verbal and nonverbal cues for rejection, ambivalence, and enthusiastic consent.
  • Unpack the concept of body autonomy and understand the idea of consent as an extension of people’s bodies, no matter the age.

February 8- Healthy relationships: 

  • Identify and describe the warning signs of both unhealthy and abusive relationships.
  • Develop an understanding of the components of power and control. 

February 15- STI’s & Safer Sex:

  • Explore the fundamentals of safer sex
  • Offer practical strategies to reduce the risk of the most serious sexually transmitted infections while understanding that there isn’t complete risk elimination for every possible condition.
  • Provide insight on how to make whatever precautions you choose feel as pleasurable as possible.

February 22- Pleasure: 

  • An exploration of pleasure as a liberating practice, extending beyond sex and possibly not involving sex at all.
