I frequently speak on disability awareness, the intersection between disability and sexuality, and other such awesome topics. One big part of that when speaking to able bodied folks is talking about how to make their education and workshops that THEY provide more accessible overall. Here are some quick tips to think about when writing/talking/presenting, whether [...]
I speak and write a lot on sexuality and disability. From classes on Negotiating BDSM in Disability Context to working on multiple writing project, the topic of sex and disability is a pretty big part of my life. And one part of how I talk about/with/in regards to living with disabilities is the Spoon Theory, [...]

Hey all!
As you may remember, I was working (and still am) on an anthology about sexuality and disability, tentatively titled Sexual Ability. I posted a Call for Submissions, I had people repost it, but got very few essays.

Support Your Sex Educator Sex education is not often the high-paying and oh so glamorous job people tend to believe it to be. Between travel and lodging costs, items for demos, paper, printer ink, hosting fees, continuing education classes and more, it can add up. If you can, please help support sex educators to keep classes frequent and affordable!
