Love Rants with Chanel Contos

<p><strong>Warning: this episode of POPSUGAR’s Love Rants discusses sexual assault and maybe be triggering for some listeners.</strong></p> <p>In this episode of POPSUGAR’s Love Rants, Melissa Mason sits down with consent and sexual education advocate Chanel Contos as they unpack the nuances and considerations around those topics that governments and schools all too often miss.</p> <p>Contos' widespread movement pushing for holistic sexual education took off after she posted a simple question on her Instagram story: have you or has someone you know been sexually assaulted by someone who attended an all-boys Sydney private school? Within 24 hours, over 200 people replied ‘Yes’.</p> <p>From there, Contos launched her website — Teach Us Consent — which advocates for holistic consent and sex education. In February of last year, the initiative smashed a huge milestone, with Ministers of Education nationwide committing to mandating "holistic and age-appropriate consent education in every school, every year, from foundation until Year 10", starting this year.</p> <p>But, Contos says we still have a long way to go. In this episode, her and Mel discuss:</p> <ul> <li aria-level="1">The crucial difference between ‘no means no’ and ‘only yes means yes’</li> <li aria-level="1">Where government and schools are falling short around consent and sexual education</li> <li aria-level="1">How lessons around consent have been taught over time</li> <li aria-level="1">Why enthusiastic consent should be the end goal</li> </ul> <p>This podcast is presented by POPSUGAR Australia and is sponsored by Youly, a platform exclusively for women that says “Buck that!” to the traditional healthcare system.
