In this episode, we talk about the linkages between cleanliness, crippledness and sexiness.

In this episode, we talk about disability and masturbation. We talk about the 'process' of masturbation when disabled, I share some stories about cumming when young, queer and crippled, and we look at what happens when you can't cum by yourself anymore. How does disability affect self-pleasure on an emotional level? Find out!
