A System That Fails Us

sexual healthcare women nonbinary

Sexual healthcare in Germany is failing women and genderqueer people. Basic services like STI screening and counselling are inaccessible, shaming is normalized, and systemic barriers persist at every level, disproportionately impacting the most marginalized. This isn’t just oversight, it’s policy – justified by flawed science and patriarchal narratives about gender and sexuality. The result is worse health, greater inequality, and preventable harm for individuals and society.

It’s time for change.

Our Vision

flinta trans intersex sexual health sti

We dream of an approach to sexual health that actively centers genderqueer people and women, focusing on pleasure, self-determination, agency, and consent as a way not only of reducing harm, but promoting well-being.

We dream of a world where access to sexual health resources is straightforward, affirming, anonymous, and affordable for all people.

We dream of a world where intersecting inequalities no longer determine whose bodies, sexualities, and health are valued and protected.

We dream of a world free of pervasive shaming around female, trans*, intersex, and nonbinary sexual practices, a world where the stories told about female and genderqueer sexuality are more expansive and unconstrained.

We dream of a world where sexual freedom is affirmed as a human right, a world where all people are empowered to pursue sexual pleasure on their own terms.

We dream of a world where sexual and reproductive health is understood as inseparable from bodily autonomy, empowerment, and the fight to end gender-based violence, a world where sex is not a stage for reproducing domination and submission along gendered lines, but a space of mutual exploration, agency, and joy for all.

OUR WORK

Bringing our vision for FLINTA* sexual healthcare to life means expanding resources, dismantling barriers to care, and transforming the systems and narratives that produce inequality in the first place. Our work combines community programming with advocacy, outreach, research, and narrative change – all grounded in lived experience. We expose the enormous gap between what’s available in theory and what people can actually access in practice. But we also question what’s available in the first place, challenging the discriminatory structures and flawed assumptions that shape sexual healthcare, policy, and research.

We’re a 100% grassroots, bottom-up initiative: every euro counts, every euro is appreciated.

A special note to our cis male allies: imagine what it would be like if you had to fight for every single STI test, literally argue with doctors and clinicians to give you one. Imagine asking for an STI test and facing explicit shaming or outright denial that the sex you’re having is even happening. Imagine that if on the off chance you were successful in getting a test, you’d be asked to shell out 100+ euros each time. That’s the situation your FLINTA* friends are facing.
