🚨 New research out! 🚨 We surveyed 935 sexual minority men in Australia to find out how useful they find sex and relationship education. Spoiler: Most sources barely make the cut!

New paper out! 📢
We explored chemsex among 600+ gay & bi men in Australia. About 1 in 3 reported engaging in chemsex in the past year.

Research like this matters because sexual minority communities are already over-represented in poorer public health outcomes. Ignoring this evidence may deepen inequities.

🧵 New research alert! 🧵

Where do partnered sexual minority men learn about sex and relationships? And does it make a difference in their relationships?

We surveyed 582 men about what sources they found useful—and how they felt in their relationships.

👉 Sex and relationship education strategies need to consider the range of other sources that we might learn from - peers & friends, healthcare providers, the internet, popular culture, and pornography all have a role to play

🚧 While we gained valuable insights, this study is just the beginning. Future research could dive deeper into what actually works and how different age groups learn best. Let’s keep pushing for better education!
