Angus has friendships, a fulfilled life, and plenty to say about the world. But when it comes to intimacy, there's a barrier many able-bodied people never have to think about.
In this episode, Angus opens up about accessing sex work, the heartbreak that led him there, and the relationship he's built through hiring a sex worker, who affectionately calls herself his “professional girlfriend”.
For Angus, this isn't just about sex. It's about intimacy, connection, having something to look forward to, and experiencing a part of life that can be much harder to access when you're a person with a disability.
We talk about the assumptions people make about people with disabilities, why Angus shouldn't have to justify wanting intimacy, and the financial barriers that come with having to pay for something many people take for granted.
