Disability & Sexuality: An Introductory Guide for Sex Educators & Able-Bodied Allies

By: Ashley Hartman Annis

A brief introduction to the theory and practice of taking the ableism out of sex education. Starting with some basic concepts and terms (like "intersectionality" and "compulsory able-bodiedness"), moving on to a couple of moving, instructional poems, a primer on disability justice and the difference between "sex life" and sexual culture, and finishing up with some practical talk about sex toys. A solid grounding to launch from as you begin to educate yourself as much as you need about this neglected topic.
