Women’s Sexual Health Symposium: ‘Because It Feels Good’

Last spring, GCSU issued a survey about sexual health across campus and found startling results. Of those sexually active, only 54 percent reported using a condom during sex, and 52 percent did not use a method of contraceptive, or did not know what form of contraceptive was used the last time they had sex.

Alarmed by these statistics, GCSU set out to educate students with the Women’s Sexual Health Symposium.

Presenters will include Debby Herbenick, author of the book “Because It Feels Good,” along with various other speakers talking about everything from condoms to breast exams and even a panel for the sexually diverse. Students will be able to drop off questions before the lectures start to avoid embarrassment.

“Everyone is welcome to come,” said Jennifer

Graham, Women’s Resource Center and diversity coordinator. “Sexual health helps all of us make informed choices about our well-being. It’s about keeping your body healthy and watching out for each other.”
