Wanderlust Swingers – A Swinger Podcast & Lifestyle Stories EP224 – STI Testing for Swingers: What “Recently Tested” Really Means What does “recently tested” actually mean when you’re a swinger, hotwife, single dater or practicing ethical non-monogamy? And does a negative STI test really tell you everything you think it does? For Sexual Health Awareness Month, Cate is joined by Alan and Angela, founders of STD Hero, for a conversation about STI testing for swingers, MGen, oral gonorrhea, testing windows, site specific testing and the sexual health conversations we probably need to be having more often.

And because sexual health is about far more than avoiding an infection, we get into communication, confidence, sexual wellness, talking openly about fantasies and desires, and why better sexual-health conversations can actually enable people to have more informed and pleasurable adventures.
