The Man Cave has partnered with Teach Us Consent to deliver an entertaining, informative and heartfelt digital content series unpacking consent, sex and relationships: Is This OK??


Young people are more aware of and tuned in to conversations about sex, sexuality, consent and gender than ever before. So how do we, the adults, parents, educators and role models in their lives, talk about these subjects with them?

Is This OK?? – hosted by Man Cave Partnerships Manager and Senior Facilitator Lindsay Marchment – contains insights and tools to make navigating these conversations easier.

Episodes drop weekly on Mondays featuring insights from the experts at Teach Us Consent, parents, educators and The Man Cave. Listen and subscribe via Spotify, Apple Podcasts or on your preferred podcast platform.


Also, check out our YouTube channel, where we invited a huge range of role models into The Man Cave to break these topics, from the experts at Teach Us Consent, comedians, dancers, Man Cave facilitators, authors, models and even teenagers themselves. We're dropping weekly videos every Thursday for young people, from 10 teenagers posing questions to consent expert Dr Mardi Wilson, to authentic and real conversations about handling rejection.


Is This OK?? is supported by the Victorian Government.
