Sex and Disability 101

Sunday September 28, 2025
15:30

Description

Society is rife with myths around disability and sexuality, even going as far as saying disabled people can't be sexual. But this just isn't true! Disabled sexuality is creative, restorative, exploratory, and vast in how it looks from person to person.
In this pleasure-focused workshop, we'll unpack some myths related to disabled sex, and learn tips and tricks for more accessible sex practices. This workshop focused on the disabled experience (inclusive of physical, sensory, intellectual, neurodivergence, chronic health conditions, etc.), but is open to anyone looking to learn more about disabled sex, whether you're a partner, friend, family member, or someone who might experience disability later on in life (technically most of us!).
There will be lots of opportunity to bring your own questions or concerns to the table to workshop them together, but participants are welcome to just listen and take the information in without participating.

Centretown would like to acknowledge that Ottawa is built on the unceded, unsurrendered Territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation.

The Anishinaabe Algonquin peoples have lived on this land since time immemorial. We recognize and deeply appreciate their historic connection to this place. We also recognize the contributions of Métis, Inuit, and other Indigenous peoples have made, both in shaping and strengthening this community in particular, and our province and country as a whole.
