REALationships: Situationships, Pleasure and More

When you start seeing someone, you feel alive, but sometimes you’re just not sure where to take things. “Do I go there?”, “What’s expected of me?”, “Do I want this, do I even like this – isn’t this what I should be doing?” 

Situationships, relationships and dating are underpinned by expectations, desire and sometimes uncertainty. How do we navigate our needs, without appearing too vanilla or come across as a jerk? 

Take your learning beyond the classroom with this frank discussion with Sex and Relationship Coach Georgia Grace, where she’ll be answering your curly questions about REALationships.  

 

Two vibrators are up for grabs for those in the audience who ask questions, thanks to Normal.

About SEXtember at UQ

Everyone has the right to safe, healthy and thriving relationships with themselves and others

Join us for UQ's inaugural SEXtember festival, an initiative aiming to normalise sex-positive conversations about sex, sexuality, healthy relationships, sexual health and reproductive health.

The theme for UQ's SEXtember festival this year is Bodies and Boundaries in recognition of the many social pressures we can face regarding our body (and its functions) and our relationships (spanning family, friends, romantic, sexual, work and more). This theme highlights the importance of taking care of, accepting, and respecting our own and other’s bodies and boundaries.

Join UQ Respect and UQ Wellbeing throughout September for a number of exciting events and opportunities including Hump Day, Feel Good Comedy, You Can’t Ask That panel event, Drag Trivia and Clay Connections.

We are excited to partner with UNSW, USyd, UNC and UoA to deliver a number of online events for you to engage with privately across a variety of topics including Queer Sex Education and including a keynote webinar from Matt Brown from She Is Not Your Rehab.
