Joining Meg this week on CherryPop is actress and advocate Lolo Spencer. Lolo is the founder of Sitting Pretty Productions, a platform devoted to showcasing disability lifestyle authentically, and shares the importance of inclusivity in intimacy on screen.
“That's a topic that I've been advocating for since day one when creating content, because it's one never discussed. And it's never discussed in a way that I feel like is empowering or helpful, to the community. It's always this, you know, as we always say, inspiration porn perspective. That doesn't make me want to have sex! So this isn't what I'm making. If this doesn't make me want to have sex, nobody's gonna want to have sex with me if this is how we're talking about it.” -Lolo Spencer
Lolo and Meg also break down the emotionally intimate and impactful moments in Lolo’s 2019 film Give Me Liberty, for which she was nominated for a Spirit Award for her outstanding performance.
