Relationships
We will form many relationships in our lives, from those with our parents/carers to those
we develop with friends and romantic partners. Individuals have varying feelings and
opinions and contrasting ways of communicating. At one point in time, a relationship will
inevitably experience conflict or misunderstanding. It is crucial to learn how to negotiate
and resolve conflict effectively to ensure a relationship endures adversity.
Although relationships can enhance self-esteem
and self-confidence, they also have the potential
to cause physical and/or mental harm. Power
may be used immorally and various forms
of abuse may occur, which significantly
impact on wellbeing. An individual may
experience physical, sexual, emotional
or financial abuse in a range of
relationships. Individuals may be victim to
family violence, date violence or sexual
harassment in a range of settings. It is
important for individuals to learn how to
‘speak up’ and develop personal safety
strategies to protect themselves from
violence and abuse.

Activity

In your own words, define the following terms as they relate to the topic
of relationships.

Apprehension Doubts, unsure, guilt, the possibility of misfortune.Fearful expectation of

Building and maintaining relationships


through communication
Communication is a vital ingredient in building and maintaining healthy relationships.
Communication skills such as active listening, arguing constructively, conflict resolution and
empathy are essential in building caring and positive relationships.

Activity

Explain how the following skills improve communication and can help build caring
and positive relationships.

Skill How it improves communication


Active listening
Active listening involves
non‑verbal communication
skills such as maintaining
eye contact, showing interest
in what is being conveyed
and displaying positive
body language.
Arguing constructively
A important skill that needs
to be learnt in order to
argue a belief without letting
emotions get out of hand. If
this does happen, often an
argument disintegrates into
physical and/or verbal abuse.
Conflict resolution
Conflict resolution can be
performed by remaining alert
and calm, controlling your
emotions and behaviours
and being aware of and
respectful for differences.

Being empathic
An important skill for
young people to develop is
empathy. Being empathic
means that a person is
able to respect the rights,
feelings, beliefs and opinions
of another person.

Taking action if a relationship is


not respectful
All relationships can go through rough experiences and have difficult times. Sometimes
relationships don’t work out and end up breaking apart.
It’s important to respect the wishes of each person in the relationship. Going through a
breakdown in relationship can be a very emotional, stressful experience and it’s important
for young people to keep the problem in perspective and look after their own mental and
physical health. They should give themselves time to get back to feeling normal again and
seek support from friends or family.
It is also important that young people are able to recognise when they feel no longer feel
respected in their relationship or are unable to respect their partner. Taking necessary
steps to either deal with the situation and move forward or distance and disengage from a
relationship that is no longer healthy is extremely important.

Activity

1. Create a list of steps individuals can take should they feel they want to leave a
relationship that is no longer respectful.

2. Create a blog post for teen viewers aimed at providing age-relevant information on how
to handle a relationship that is no longer respectful. Include tips and advice, videos or
links to other useful information. Use the space below to plan.

The #MeToo movement


The #MeToo movement is a movement against sexual harassment and sexual assault.
While the movement has been established for over a decade, it gathered momentum
significantly in 2017 when the public learnt of multiple sexual misconduct allegations
against Harvey Weinstein, a high profile US film producer. Soon after, many other women
found the confidence to make complaints of sexual harassment and assault, often against
people in positions of power.
In Australia, the issue gathered momentum again in 2021 when prominent sexual assault
survivor Grace Tame was named Australian of the Year, and political staffer Brittany
Higgins lodged a sexual assault complaint against a more senior colleague working at the
Australian Parliament House.

Contraception
Participating in safe sex refers to avoiding the exchange of semen, blood and other bodily
fluids during sexual contact. This reduces the risk of unplanned pregnancy and contracting
sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Contraception is one of the most common ways
to prevent pregnancy and STIs. It refers to that action that a person will take in order to
ensure safe sex by taking responsibility.
There are a number of contraceptive choices available in Australia. These include physical
barriers and devices, hormonal methods (oral, implant and injectable), sterilisation and
emergency methods. The method you choose will depend on a range of factors.
Choosing a contraceptive method to use should involve communication with the other
partner, collection of accurate information from reliable sources and an evaluation of
general health status. Decisions will also be affected by the type of relationship, values,
morals and the convenience and availability of contraception choice.
It is important to realise that not all
contraceptive methods provide protection
against STIs. Condoms can be
used in conjunction with other
contraceptive methods to
reduce the risk of infection.
It is important to assess
the pros and cons of each
method and consider how
they meet the needs of
the individual.

Activity

Provide a description of the following contraceptive methods.


Abstinence
The few available studies suggest that the media do have an impact because the media
keep sexual behavior on public and personal agendas, media portrayals reinforce a
relatively consistent set of sexual and relationship norms, and the media rarely depict
sexually responsible models.

Physical barriers and devices


Physical barriers and devices either prevent sperm from reaching an ovum (egg) for
fertilisation or prevent implantation of a fertilised egg. Options include:

Male condom Diaphragm

Female condom Intrauterine device (IUD)

Oral hormone contraceptives


Oral contraceptives provide hormonal contraception for women in the form of a daily pill
that is available by prescription. Hormonal contraceptives are a highly effective (94–99%)
form of contraception, if used correctly. They may produce side effects and don’t protect
against STIs. There are two types of oral contraceptives available in Australia:

Combined pill Mini-pill

Hormonal implants, devices and injectables


Hormonal contraceptives for women are also available as implants, devices and
injectables. They are highly effective if used correctly, but may produce side effects and
don’t protect against STIs. Male injectable contraceptives are currently being trialled.

sperm to the egg).

Emergency contraception
Sometimes it’s necessary to prevent pregnancy after sex rather than before; for example
when a pill is forgotten, a condom breaks or in the case of rape. Emergency contraception
is a hormonal method of contraception that prevents or delays ovulation in that cycle or
stops a fertilised egg from implanting in the uterus.

Teenage pregnancy
The rate of teenage pregnancies in Australia has declined significantly over the past few
decades and has been stable in recent years. Only 5% of children are now born to women
aged 19 years and under.
Estimates vary, but it is believed that around one in four sexually active teenage women
may become pregnant by mistake. About half of these unwanted pregnancies are
terminated. One in six women aged 20 to 29, who are asked about pregnancy, will have
experienced a pregnancy as a teenager.
Some pregnant teenagers are so shocked and frightened that they try to cope by ignoring
or denying the pregnancy. This can mean that they miss the safest window of opportunity
for abortion or don’t receive proper antenatal care. Research indicates that sex education
and access to effective contraception is essential in preventing unplanned pregnancy
in the teenage population. Teenage women generally encounter more problems during
pregnancy and childbirth than older women.

Activity

Identify reasons for the higher complication rate for teenage women
during pregnancy.

Sexually transmitted
infections (STIs)
STIs are infections that are passed on through skin‑to‑skin contact and the exchange of
infected body fluids. They are commonly spread during sexual contact and intercourse.
There are three different types of STIs – bacteria, virus and parasites.
STIs can sometimes go unnoticed, as there may be no signs and symptoms of the
infection. If they are left untreated, they can have serious effects on physical and sexual
health and can cause infertility. STI tests are available from a doctor or health clinic and
should be used for anyone who has had unprotected sex. Most infections are easily
treated when diagnosed.
Common examples of STIs are.
ƒƒgenital herpes ƒƒsyphilis ƒƒhepatitis B ƒƒpelvic inflammatory
ƒƒchlamydia ƒƒgonorrhoea ƒƒHIV disease
The most common sexually transmissible infection in Australia is chlamydia. In 2017,
there were an estimated 255,228 new chlamydia infections in people aged 15–29 years.
Almost three quarters of infections in young people remain undiagnosed and untreated.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics report that the incidence of STIs in the Australian
population is increasing, although the reasons are unclear. Reasons could be that the
safer sex message is losing impact or that greater awareness is leading to increased
testing, notification and treatment.

HIV and other STIs in Australia


ƒƒThe number of newly diagnosed cases of HIV in Australia has declined by 7% over the
past five years, following a steady increase since 1999.
ƒƒThere were 28,364 diagnoses of gonorrhoea and 4,398 diagnoses of infectious syphilis
in 2017, with the vast majority of diagnoses for both infections in males.
ƒƒThere has been a marked reduction in diagnoses of genital warts in younger age groups,
due to the introduction of a human papillomavirus vaccination program in 2007.
ƒƒOver the past five years (2013–2017), the notification rate of infectious syphilis increased
135% from 7.8 per 100,000 in 2013 to 18.3 per 100,000 in 2017.
