Words by Charlotte Whincup CW: Contains discussions of ableism and sexual abuse. Yes! Yes! Yes! That’s what we like to hear. Crazy concept, I know, but believe it or not, people with disabilities, chronic illness or neurodivergence have sexual desires too! What?! You mean being diagnosed with a disability or medical condition doesn’t change your […]
Words and artwork by Arantza Garcia The moment I sat down in my therapist’s office, I started talking. His lack of surprise told me I should start working on my small talk again. “You won’t BELIEVE the bullshit I had to go through this week.” “It’s my job to believe it, I think.” “No, Tom, […]
