Chronic Erotic: Exploring Queer Sex, Pleasure, & Chronic Health Conditions
Living with a chronic illness or chronic health condition can be tricky, and even more so when it comes to sex. Join Rachele Manett to chat about sex and pleasure from a disability justice perspective - we'll talk about pain and pleasure, energy expenditure, safety planning, and other tips and tricks to make sex more accessible for you. There will be lots of opportunities to guide the conversation to make sure your questions get answered.
This event is sponsored by the CommunityBasedResearchCentre whose staff and volunteers will be on site recruiting participants for Our Health, a groundbreaking national project that will look into the current state of health among people in our communities. What is life like for 2S/LGBTQQIA+ people across Canada? How’s our mental and physical health? Our spiritual wellness? Our romantic or sex life (if applicable)? How are we managing our chronic health conditions?
A monthly event (last Wednesday of each month) promoting accessible, safe and inclusive spaces for the queer (2SLGBTQIA+) climbing community. The event starts at 6 PM, and if it is your first visit to the location, East Peak staff members will be conducting gym orientation sessions at 6 PM, 7 PM, and 8 PM. This way, we ensure that everyone feels comfortable and familiar with the surroundings.
Non-members can attend for only $10 + tax. East Peak is pleased to include harness and climbing shoe rentals at no additional cost for all climbers, ensuring that you have everything you need for a fantastic climbing experience!
