Douching, Pulling Out & Other Myths That Need to Go (ft. Birna Gustafsson)

Douching, Pulling Out & Other Myths That Need to Go (ft. Birna Gustafsson)

Sexologist Alexa Andre (@sexwithalexa) is joined by Birna Gustafsson, sex educator with a master's in public health and host of Explicit Studies, to talk about the sea of sexual misinformation we’re constantly swimming in—and how to get better at spotting it.

Together, they bust myths that still circulate widely online (even in sex-positive spaces) and explore how shame, purity culture, and bad science shape our sexual health beliefs.

Expect to learn:

  • The actual failure rate of pulling out and why it’s riskier than you think

  • Why douching is unnecessary—and can be harmful

  • Whether you can get pregnant on your period (hint: you can)

  • The truth about HPV, oral sex, and throat cancer

  • Why orgasms aren’t the only marker of “good sex”

  • The dangers of black-and-white sex advice on social media

  • How kids are absorbing harmful beliefs from TikTok, porn & uninformed adults

  • Why pegging can turn men into better lovers 👀

  • Why we must improve sex ed for healthcare professionals

  • How to know if your sex advice source is trustworthy

  • Birna also shares how she's helping train nurses and midwives to better support patients with inclusive, evidence-based sex education. Plus: her favorite sex ed resources, books, and where to go if you're ready to learn the truth.
