Why is Sex and Disability Still So Taboo?

Growing up, Leisa Prowd often wondered if she could ever be seen as desirable. As a person with dwarfism, Leisa has at times been subjected to an infantilising gaze. Even as an adult, she faces ongoing discrimination and stigma. But through her dance and artistic practice, she’s reclaimed her body and is redefining what desire looks like. In this refreshingly frank and funny episode, Leisa joins hosts Madeleine Stewart and Alistair Baldwin to talk all things sex, stigma, and why disability is still treated like a taboo in the bedroom. Occupational Therapist Anita Brown-Major also joins the conversation, sharing her expertise on educating people about sexual pleasure.
