BISH is a guide to sex, love and you for everyone over 14. It’s for people who are (or are thinking about) having sex and/or relationships. Hopefully it’s for all genders and sexualities, people with disabilities, backgrounds, beliefs and values. It’s got a UK vibe so we say ‘snog’, ‘fancy’ and ‘shag’ a lot. If you need help IRL click here to find out about sexual health services.
You can Ask Bish if you have a question but please do have a look at questions I’ve already answered and the rest of the site. There is a LOT here so do have a click around and see if I’ve answered your question. There are videos here or you can see them all at YouTube.
I also have an activity book to accompany this website. It has activities to help you to work out how to do you, sex, and relationships. It’s just £3 or free if you don’t have cash and it’s the perfect thing to have on your phone or even to print out. Check it out here, it even has join the dots genitals!
Do leave comments (I pre-moderate them all), or you can follow me via twitter or instagram. See what people like you say about this website and you can also have your say. If you would like to help make the website better you can get involved here. To find out more about BISH (formerly Best In Sexual Health), Durex, and me (hi) go here.
If you’re an adult trying to teach young people about sex and relationships, thanks for dropping by but this isn’t a teaching resource. Head over to my website for practitioners for resources or check out DO… RSE for Schools.
