HOT STUFF ALERT 🔥🥵 @comeasyouareco.bsky.social has generously given us two sexy prize packs to give out at our MARY JANE’S NOT A VIRGIN ANYMORE screening (this Thursday at Toronto's Revue Cinema)!!! We can’t show you what’s in them, but we promise you’ll be satisfied.

An information pamphlet and a lesbian pride pin lay on top of a colourful floral blanket. The pamphlet says "About Us: Learn About Come As You Are" and the pin is a cube shape with the lesbian flag colours.

Viewing the world from a disability-inclusive lens teaches us about flexibility and creativity when it comes to sex. Scarleteen volunteer, Latha, loves how this article reminds us to look beyond the "supposed-to-be" mentality we often see attached to sex. www.scarleteen.com/read/sex-s...

Varied fonts on a cream banner upon a light blue/green background, and an image of photorealistic cat with an open mouth. At the top of the banner text reads: "Staff Pick: Latha Scarleteen Volunteer" Bottom banner reads "from Disability Dharma: What Including & Learning from Disability Can Teach (Everyone) About Sex"

Main text reads a quote from the piece advertised "If all we focused on was what we couldn't do, we'd be able to do even less, and be stuck in a perpetual pit of despair. This is a spot a whole lot of able-bodied people seem to be stuck in when it comes to sex a whole lot of the time. - Heather Corinna"

All porn is “ethical” by definition of consent. Because if someone is not consenting, it is not porn. But all companies (even “ethical” ones) deal with labour issues like fair pay, workplace hazards, sexual harassment, interpersonal issues, etc. Under capitalism, no job is perfectly ethical.
