Theme of the Month - Being Sex Savvy

Theme of the Month: Being Sex Savvy

Our Theme of the Month for June is Being Sex Savvy.

This month's theme explores how the growth of social media and digital communication has changed the ways people meet, communicate, maintain friendships and develop relationships.

Social Media and Relationships

Social media and online platforms have become an important part of everyday communication. They allow people to meet new people, stay connected with friends and family, and maintain relationships across distances.

However, communicating online can also present challenges. Being aware of how you communicate, what you share and who you interact with can help you make safer and more informed decisions online.

Staying Safe Online

When using social media and other digital platforms, it is important to think carefully about your privacy, personal information and digital footprint.

Simple considerations include:

  • Reviewing privacy settings

  • Thinking before sharing personal information

  • Being cautious when communicating with people you do not know

  • Treating others respectfully online

  • Reporting behaviour or content that causes concern

Healthy Online Communication

Respect and clear communication are important when developing and maintaining relationships, both online and offline.

Everyone should feel able to establish personal boundaries, communicate openly and seek support if an interaction or situation online makes them uncomfortable.
