Cory Silverberg is committed to the work of having thoughtful, accessible, and open conversations about sexuality
A reality TV series called “Push Girls” is bringing an unfettered, uncensored glimpse at what it means to be sexy, ambitious and living with paralysis in Hollywood. The series follows four “attractive women navigating their friendships, relationships, and careers with a dose of producer-injected drama.” Tiphany Adams declares, in the show’s premiere episode: “Yes, I can have sex…lots and lots of sex.”
Tiphany Adams appeared on the CBC Radio program Q on June 12th, and told host Jian Ghomeshi that two of the common questions she hears are: Can you be intimate? And, if so, can you feel it? Tiphany is also a lesbian, making the program LGBT-inclusive.
Cory Silverberg is a Toronto-based sexuality educator and public speaker who has made access central to his teaching about the intersections of sexual pleasure, health, and disability. He believes that thinking about sex and disability through a social model can help us take apart and reconstruct ideas and practices of sexuality in a way that is “healthier, hotter, and more inclusive for everyone.”
