LOS ANGELES — "Shameless Sex" hosts Amy Baldwin and April Lampert have announced the close of their Movember Prostate Awareness Instagram campaign, which invited listeners to send in anonymous photos sharing tips about prostate health.
According to Baldwin, the pair’s two-week challenge to promote education and participation around prostate and testicular cancer prevention led to a slew of informative online submissions, while also inspiring "Shameless Sex" listeners to try prostate play themselves.
Following the campaign close, Baldwin shared, "One of the best parts about it was that it gave participants an opportunity to be a part of the education. We had quite a few people share that the Movember campaign inspired them to explore their prostates, something that they'd long been afraid of due to general lack of education about the subject and it being a bit of a taboo activity.”
Baldwin noted that favorite entries included, "'Low T' increases your chances of developing prostate cancer", "A prostate feels like the tip of your nose — only three-quarters of your finger!" and "Regular stimulation of the prostate may reduce health risks."
“Sure, there are incentives, such as prizes for participating, but we are constantly impressed by the bravery and willingness people have in taking part in conversations about sex," concluded Baldwin. "It's like they are hungry for it, so it feels good to provide an outlet where they can be a part of the sex-positive movement.”
