#146 Hidden Disabilities and Dating (with Jennie Williams)

On this episode of #mensexpleasure, I chat with Jennie Williams, the founder and CEO of Enhance The UK, a user-led charity campaigning to change public perceptions of disability. Enhance The UK provide face to face and virtual training to businesses and organizations on a variety of different topics surrounding disability awareness. All of their training is delivered by disabled trainers, utilizing a powerful combination of expert knowledge, and lived experience. Jennie is very passionate about the charity’s Undressing Disability campaign, which focuses on the sexual rights of disabled people. The two of us talk about the intersection of disability and sexuality, the sexual stigma surrounding disability, and how Enhance The UK is both educating non-disabled folks as well as advocating for folks with disabilities.
