Totally Outright

Gay men have special concerns when it comes to health. We are all considerably affected by the quality of our social and political environment, something gay men cannot afford to be indifferent about.

Totally Outright is a new Vancouver-based program that aims to create a corps of well-informed, sex savvy young men who can communicate with a wide range of other players toward building a society in which gay health is assured.

Give us two weekends and we’ll show you the ropes of gay health -- all you need to know about sex, relationships and living a healthy gay life. And more, we’ll build leadership and communication skills that are sure to boost your life and career. You’ll meet other guys just like you and learn from some of the top leaders in the field.

Totally Outright will get you into the know – informed, educated and ready to act.

Topics we’ll cover:

History of Gay Men’s Health
Gay Health Defined
The State of Sexual Safety
Norms and Ethics in Gay Life
Relationships Unraveled
Health Access & Supportive Care
Mobilizing a Gay Health Agenda
