The confessor
I'm an uppity crip scholar-activist and sexologist. I use the word 'crip' in a way to signal reclamation and promotion of disability pride and disability politics. This blog is a repository of my rants concerning disability, body politics, social movement capacity building, media representation, body modification, sexuality, love, etc. Some of these rants will be on topics I feel that many of us shy away from - but I would love to see these posts generate conversations.Archives
