Welcome to "Questions for Shira"

Hello and welcome! You have entered a judgment-free zone where we believe that knowledge is power! The author of this site is here to answer your questions about sex, love, relationships, and any other topics that comes to mind. She is the former co-director of Sex Week at Yale, and a former Group Head for Community Health Educators--a program which provides health education to New Haven public school students. She has also worked for Planned Parenthood and the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States.This blog is a space for students, parents, and people of all ages and backgrounds to find answers to difficult questions on life's most complicated topic. So go ahead...ask away. Examples: "Do I need to be 18 to buy a condom?"  "How do I talk to my 12 year old about HIV?" "Are you still a virgin if you use a tampon?"  "What is an HPV vaccine and why should my daughter get one?"  "How do I come out to my best friend?"

Email your questions to questionsforshira@gmail.com and find and check back on the blog for an answer and advice. If you are interested in having Shira teach a workshop on sexual health or healthy relationships please email the address above.
