Health/Health Advocacy (3)

Today, March 8th, marks International Women's Day! We hope you find the time today to celebrate the women in your life and think about all the great progress women have made in the past hundred years.
Dating Confidential is a study promoting women's health. In order to improve sexual health services and education for women, we need a better understanding of their health needs! That's why by filling out the survey, and forwarding it to friends, you are helping to improve the health and education of women across North America. Thank you for your support!
One of the reasons Dating Confidential is necessary is because women are staying single longer- dating and having new relationships throughout their life. This is partly because there are many more opportunities for women besides early marriage & children. Women are staying single to pursue their education or careers, or raising children outside traditional marriages, or re-entering the dating world after long relationships! These are great advances that require new research so that the health and education services can keep up.

This study is to examine the different types of sexual activities that dating women most often partake in with their sexual partners. We will use this information to improve the health care services and education we offer to women. This research is for a Doctorate degree in Nursing from UBC.

Thanks to everyone who came out last night and made the Orgasm Inc. screening a huge success! We had a full house and as you can see from the photo, a great discussion afterwards with the panel of speakers!
This morning we were even more delighted to see an article by Erin Ellis on the front page of the Vancouver Sun about Orgasm Inc and Dating Confidential! You can read it here.
Here's some of the other great coverage of the event:
UBC, UVIC experts to discuss the medicalization of female sexuality (UBC Public Affairs)
Study examines adult women, sex, and risk (Georgia Straight)
We were also pleased to give away a basket of goodies, including Good Clean Love products and an Orgasm Inc DVD, to one lucky attendee!
