In this episode of Please Me, Eve sits down with Robert Johnson, founder of Shameless Care, for a raw, eye-opening conversation about the serious gaps in standard STI testing — and how his personal experience sparked a much-needed revolution in sexual health care. Robert shares how a routine STI panel — that came back negative — still left him unknowingly transmitting gonorrhea. That one moment revealed a much bigger problem in the way most doctors approach STI testing, especially when it comes to oral and asymptomatic infections. Together, Eve and Robert dive deep into: Why “full panel” testing often isn’t full at all The shocking truth about oral gonorrhea and how often it’s missed How the swinger and ethically non-monogamous communities approach safe sex — and where they fall short The stigma, controversy, and misunderstanding around herpes testing How Shameless Care is filling critical gaps left by traditional medical care The conversations we should be having with our partners before becoming sexually active PLUS: Robert shares valuable free resources that can help you advocate for comprehensive STI testing with your own doctor, even if you can’t afford full at-home kits.
