To kick things off, we’re going to use a Padlet to do a bit of brainstorming — both individually and as a group.

There are two parts to this first task:

1. What do I already know about relationships and sexuality?
   This is your chance to share any personal ideas or knowledge you already have. Be honest — there's no right or wrong here.

2. Question Box guidelines
   We’re also going to come up with some expectations for our MSM Question Box — a safe and supportive place where you can ask any questions you have during lessons. It’s designed to help you feel comfortable seeking answers without fear of judgement. Whether your question is about the lesson or something related to what we’re learning, the Question Box is here to help.

   Please remember these expectations to make sure it stays a helpful space for everyone:

   • Be respectful of others' questions — no laughing or making fun.

   • Questions should be appropriate and related to what we're learning.

   • No names — keep it anonymous.

   • What’s shared in the Question Box stays private unless it’s something that needs extra support or help.

Let’s get started now — head to the Padlet and begin adding your ideas!

7. Don't put any memes or any type of bad thing e.g. brain rot + 67

8. Respect people's boundaries

9. Don't take things to far

1. Don't be inappropriate

• Puberty and relationships involve personal topics—keep it respectful.

• Avoid sexual jokes or comments that make others uncomfortable.

2. Don't be judgemental

• Everyone experiences puberty and relationships differently.

• Judging others can lead to shame or embarrassment—be supportive instead.

3. Respect each other's comments or experiences

• Sharing takes courage. Listen without interrupting or mocking.

• Validate others’ feelings even if you don’t fully understand them.

4. Be kind—don’t try to be funny at someone else's expense

• Humor is great, but not when it targets someone’s body, emotions, or relationships.

• Avoid jokes that could embarrass or hurt someone.

5. If you don't have anything kind or helpful to say, stay silent

• Silence is better than sarcasm or criticism.

• Think before you speak—words can stick for a long time.

6. Don’t act like you know everything or try to be “cool”

• Puberty is confusing for everyone—pretending to be an expert can make others feel small.

• Be honest, humble, and open to learning.

7. No memes or “brain rot” content

• Memes about puberty or relationships can be disrespectful or misleading.

• Keep the space clean and focused on real conversations.

8. Respect personal boundaries

• Don’t pressure anyone to share more than they’re comfortable with.

• Physical, emotional, and digital boundaries matter—always ask, never assume.

9. Don’t take jokes or teasing too far

• What’s funny to one person might be hurtful to another.

• Know when to stop—especially with sensitive topics like body changes or crushes
