It’s Sexual Health Week, and the theme this year is relationships, sex & disability! So, on this episode, Hannah’s sharing a Roundtable Discussion that she held last year where her, Nima Misra, Charlie Willis, Emily Yates & Jessica Kellgren-Fozard - who all have experience of disability - chatted about everything from the importance of having disability inclusive sex ed, to how disabled people are fetishized. They also talk about the preconceptions around disabled people & sex and the questions they’ve all been asked - including, “Can you even have sex?”
