Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are infections that are spread through sexual contact, including vaginal, anal, and oral sex. They can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites and may not always have visible symptoms.
It's important to practice safe sex by using condoms and getting regular STI testing, as many STIs can be treated and cured if detected early. If left untreated, STIs can lead to serious health problems and can even be life-threatening.
While getting tested may be difficult and pricey, it's important to understand the spectrum and keep yourself safe.
Additionally, if you are an adult content creator, performer or sex worker, taking a risk and not getting a test puts not only your health at risk but also your job.
In this podcast episode I had the privilege of conversing with Stacy and Andras, both of whom represent STI testing clinics. Stacy Feemster, a nurse practitioner at Talent Testing Service in the USA (https://www.talenttestingservice.com/), and Andras Vegh, who manages a Talent Testing Service clinic in Budapest (https://talenttestingservice.hu/).
Our discussion is around topics such as STI testing standards, an in-depth discussion about most of the infections that people should get tested for, confusion around Ureaplasma test and strategies employed by Talent Testing to avoid results falsification.
The episode is densely packed with essential information, particularly important for those involved in the sex industry or individuals engaging in unprotected sex with multiple partners.

#28 Maggie MacDonald - Pornhub Controversy, Digital Platforms and the Future of Porn
Maggie MacDonalds is a researcher who looks into the fascinating world of pornographic platforms and their cultural impact. With a graduate specialisation in Sexual Diversity Studies, Maggie’s work examines how technology, labour, governance, and cultural production intersect in the porn industry. She serves on the advisory board of PornHub (https://www.ethicalcapitalpartners.com/maggie-macdonald) and is a proud member of the Free Speech Coalition (https://www.freespeechcoalition.com/) where she advocates for the protection of sex workers and advocates for the freedom of sexual expression. Tune in to hear her perspectives on the ever-evolving landscape of adult entertainment.
In this episode, our discussion centred around digital platforms and their significant impact on the pornographic landscape, particularly focusing on major companies such as PornHub. Maggie shed light on the 2020 PornHub controversy (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/04/opinion/sunday/pornhub-rape-trafficking.html), the underlying motives of anti-pornography movements, and the spread of illegal sexual content on other digital platforms such as Facebook.
