If February 14 is traditionally synonymous with Valentine’s Day, it is this date that the ASBL O’Yes has chosen to launch its digital channel devoted to sexual health, created by and for young people. Called “Moules Frites”, the channel wants to help young people to tackle issues related to relational, emotional and sexual life “in an uninhibited and free manner”.

Moules Frites wants to give a voice to young people, through a hundred videos and podcasts. “In the form of reports, quizzes, tutorials, debates or even interviews, young people will discuss contraception, pleasure, STIs, consent, love or LGBT issues,” describes O’Yes ( ex-Sida’sos). “Everything treated with seriousness and humor,” insists the ASBL.
Some videos will focus on the perspectives of young people while others will ask questions of sexual health specialists. A podcast entitled “first time” will allow young people to tell their first experiences “to deconstruct stereotypes and other clichés”.
The creation of this channel was born from an observation: “access to information on sexual health issues is very limited and even unequal depending on the different audiences,” explains the association. The young people who took part in the project observed a “lack of suitable space dedicated to their speaking on sexual health issues”.
The channel will be available this Sunday on listening platforms such as Spotify or Deezer, as well as on social networks YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok. An evaluation of the project will be carried out during the summer.
O’Yes, created in 2009, aims to educate young people aged 15 to 30 in matters of sexual health so that they become “CRACS”, ie responsible, active and active citizens, critical and united.
