Listen "It's Time To Cut The STI Stigma"
Episode Synopsis
Did you know that STIs are on the rise in people 34 and under? And that 1 in 6 Australians will get an STI in their lifetime and with most STIs, they don't even show symptoms. There's a lot of stigma and myths out there surrounding STIs and we're on a mission to dispel them! Welcome to our first of 2 bonus episodes focussed on quelling the stigma surrounding STIs. Today Brooke and Matty share some of the common questions they have, as well as open up about some experiences they've had with sexual health testing. Nova Entertainment acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
