OK Tested Episode On Sex & Sexuality With Dr Cuterus Blew Me Away!

There’s no dearth of YouTube channels which showcase brilliant and meaningful content. One of my absolute favourite is OK Tested. Produced by ScoopWhoop, they have various entertaining episodes to their credit – Like rating certain food items based on their taste and cost, identifying the types of beverages without seeing them.

What I really admire about the crew is the no-frills way in which they talk about sex. I remember vividly an episode which revolved around finding out the flavours of the condom while being blindfolded. In fact, cast members like Tenzing and Rohit have openly talked about their sexual encounters.

OK Tested episode with Dr Cuterus blasting misconceptions

A couple of days back, I chanced upon an episode on YouTube. It was part of an ongoing series titled ‘Out of Syllabus’.

• I was once again blown away by the casual way in which Rohit, Kanishk & Robin talked about female/male anatomy & intimacy. In fact they didn’t shy away from requesting the doctor to bust certain myths revolving around the taboo word. 
• Robin came out as bisexual. He spoke about how the term LGBTQIA+ gave him an identity. I finally have a tag, I’m identifiable. His joy was palpable and I felt happy for the young man.
• A sense of deja-vu engulfed me as they started talking about menstruation. I must have been hardly eleven at that time when I thought I would die of bleeding. Such natural, biological processes are still hush-hush matters in this age.

An increased awareness about sex and sexuality today

I can go on. But my intention is not to write a review on the episode.

There is more awareness now when it comes to sexuality. But as Dr Cuterus says, there’s no proper degree for doctors in ‘these matters’. Even now, people use terms like aisi baatein (these things) for such topics. No wonder shady quacks who offer gupt rog ke ilaj flourish in our country. 

In a country of a burgeoning population, we need to up the ante and walk the talk. Prejudices must be driven away. For these very reasons, I admire OK Tested. I’m sure there must be other channels. Do let me know about your favourite channel.
