About Rahul

Rahul Verma is a youth sex educator and workshop facilitator based in Delhi. He has spent 8 years running sex education workshops for Indian college students, working-class youth, and young professionals — in Hindi, English, and Hinglish.

Rahul's work focuses on debunking the myths most Indians grow up believing (masturbation, semen retention, nightfall, size anxiety, Dhat syndrome). His 'Scene Kya Hai' workshop format uses direct, shame-free language that actually reaches young Indian men.

He's trained over 5,000 young adults across 12 states and contributed to the National Adolescent Health Programme's training materials. His writing has appeared in Youth Ki Awaaz, Feminism in India, and Khabar Lahariya.
