Show Notes

In this special bonus episode, Dr. Evelin Dacker explains the STARS method she created. It's an easy-to-remember acronym that will help you begin conversations leading to great, consensual sex.

But I don't want you to just get the theory behind the conversation, I want you to hear it in practice! So I invited my friend Ray to join me for a sample STARS conversation that you'll get to hear about halfway through this episode.

  • What is sex positivity?
  • The lack of conversation about sex in the medical profession
  • An overview of what the letters in STARS stand for
  • Leah's experience with STARS

Breaking down the STARS conversation:

  • STI Status
  • Turn Ons
  • Avoids
  • Relationship intentions
  • Safer sex practices

A sample STARS conversation:
