Bad Attitudes: An Uninspiring Podcast About Disability

Bad Attitudes: An Uninspiring Podcast About Disability

A less-than-inspiring exploration of disability from someone who is actually disabled. Heavy on the sarcasm, Bad Attitudes explores the reality of being disabled, how non-disabled people can become better advocates and allies, disability representation in pop culture, and the ways in which disability permeates society. Young or sensitive ears beware. N (always) SFW.

CW: Sex, pornography, mention of sexual assault

Seriously, why are y'all so obsessed with me?! Kidding! Thank you for not asking me incredibly rude and invasive questions, unlike the Ableds I talk about in this episode.

I don't believe in "advertising" my disability unless it's absolutely necessary, so I find it disconcerting that some parents of disabled children are making sensitive details of their child's condition available in such an obvious way.
