While cost and access are well-studied reasons for why women stop using birth control, sexual wellbeing and pleasure rarely make it into the conversation. This undermines health outcomes by making people less likely to continue with the contraception they need.
Sex For Every Body®@sex4everybody

Sexual pleasure affects whether people stay on birth control. Learn why comfort, desire, and real experiences must shape contraceptive support. Read more: sexforeverybody.com/sexual-health/… The original @thepleasureproj review: sexforeverybody.com/sexual-health/… #birthcontrol #contraception

Hello @LinkedInHelp, my page “Sex For Every Body®” was taken down in Jan 2023. The page shared evidence-based, inclusive health and education resources—never nudity or explicit material. This is a registered brand and professional initiative. Can you help me get it reinstated?

Unlike therapy bots, erotic chatbots lack clear ethical frameworks. Key issues include: • Data privacy and ownership of intimate conversations. • Boundaries for fantasies. • What to do when AI clones outlive their human counterparts or are built without consent. #AIethics

AI companions are entering bedrooms, hearts, and the research spotlight. 📊 A 2019 U.S. survey found 8% of adults had tried one. Often branded as virtual girlfriends or boyfriends, these chatbots don’t shy away from explicit content. While @replika is perhaps the best-known with X-rated functions, others, like @NomiAI_Official, @character_ai, @KindroidAI, @cuties_ai, and Jasmin.ai are specifically designed for erotic interactions and roleplay. They’re always available, always game, and offer a private, pressure-free space for exploration.

I've been so lucky to spend the last two years working with an incredible team to make pay-walled scientific studies on sexual health more accessible.
Le Shaw Institute@leshawinstitute

Because science is for you! In an age of censorship, mass (dis)information, rollbacks of bodily and sexual rights, and limited access to comprehensive sex education, one of the most important projects of Le Shaw Institute is simple: making science about sexuality accessible to everyone. Over the past two years, we’ve transformed +130 scientific papers (often jargony and paywalled) into short lay public articles, giving you easy access to evidence-based insights about love, sex, and intimate relationships. Read here: leshaw.com/articles To make this knowledge even more engaging, we’ve also been turning these articles into AI-powered podcasts. Listen here: leshaw.com/podcasts None of this would be possible without our incredible Scientific Director, Simon Dube (@SciDub11), the logistical work of Emilie Champagne, and the passion and talent of our Scientific Writers, Jenna Owsianik (@jennaow) and Athena Gayle. And a big shout out to our amazing Director Bobbi Bidochka and our dedicated Head of Activism & Community Engagement Delphine DiTecco. Everyone should be so lucky to work with such brilliant, dedicated colleagues. #KnowledgeTransfer #AcessibleScience

Political views don’t just affect how someone votes, they also influence relationships. This podcast episode takes a closer look at how political identity impacts relationship satisfaction, compatibility, and connection over time.

Still buzzing from Toronto’s first sextech conference—what a day! ⚡
Le Shaw Institute@leshawinstitute

Our Scientific Writer @jennaow had an incredible time at the first-ever SexTech TO conference last weekend! Huge shoutout to the powerhouse organizers Alexandra Friedman and Erin York—your hard work paid off and it showed in every detail. Highlights? Finally meeting Mandy Salley from @woodhullfreedom IRL, thought-provoking talks from brilliant minds like Sabrina Baldini and Carly Sheridan, and a trivia session we still can’t stop thinking about, hosted by the one and only Samantha Biitty. A weekend of connection, insight, and #sextech brilliance. 💫 #sttocon

Current research on AI porn mostly focuses on risks (making porn sex even more unrealistic, deepfakes, etc.); however, it also points to benefits (e.g., offering safer alternatives to real-world risky sex, ability to materialize your unique fantasies). leshaw.com/materialized-f…
