Neurodivergent Content Creators Redefining Sex, Sexuality, and Relationships
Sep 11, 2024Navigating sex, relationships, and intimacy as a neurodivergent person can feel like a maze, especially when mainstream sex education often overlooks the unique needs of neurodivergent communities. That's why we wanted to take this opportunity to highlight four incredible neurodivergent content creators and sex educators. These individuals are changing the conversation around relationships, sexual health, healthy communication, pleasure, and beyond.
Let’s dive into their work:
Cate Osborn (she/they) - @Catieosaurus
Cate Osborn is a powerhouse content creator, sex educator, adult performer, and advocate for mental health and disability. With humour and authenticity, Cate opens up essential conversations about ADHD, neurodivergence, and disability awareness, especially as they intersect with sex and sex education. A significant focus of their work revolves around navigating relationships as a neurodivergent person, with special emphasis on experiences in the kink community. Cate’s voice is vital in breaking stigmas and promoting healthier, inclusive approaches to sex and intimacy.
