 | This week's newsletter begins with a challenge for all of us to think about just what it is that sexy looks like, and to honestly evaluate how good we are at spotting sexy in ourselves. And it ends with a helpful primer on the difference between sex therapists, sex surrogates, and other sexual professionals; terms that will be floating around a lot thanks to the recently released film 'The Sessions'. ~ Cory | |
The Difference Between Looking and Seeing Sexy
A reader writes: I'm a 26 year-old blind female and I've been with my boyfriend, now husband, for nearly four years. He's sweet, funny, smart, and the ideal guy. But sex is a problem. We've lost a lot of the intensity we had before and I'm worried about him getting bored. He said he's also worried about that. I want to be exciting and different and keep him interested. But how do I be spontaneous and sexy at once? I feel guilty that I can't see enough to know when I look sexy, I'm not even sure how to do that. I don't know what my question is exactly but I'm writing to you as I'm afraid to bring this up with anyone around me because I feel like they wouldn't be able to separate the sex from the disability, and in some ways I think that's good, but in others not so much.
| Sexual Surrogacy and the Projected Image
Two topics that don't get talked about much in public, sexual surrogates and sex and disability are the focus of a new Hollywood film starring Helen Hunt. At the same time Turner Classic Movies is offering a more critical and historical look at disability in film.
