In this episode of Pleasure Bound, we gather with Kate’s friend Drew Clayborn for a conversation about sensuality, disability, and the expansive possibilities of pleasure. Drew shares his perspective as a quadriplegic, inviting us to question the stories we’ve inherited about sex, bodies, and what intimacy is supposed to look like. We explore the erotic power of voice, words, attention, and presence; the art of reverencing female pleasure; and the barriers disabled people face in accessing sexual connection, sexual health, and the freedom to explore their desires. Together, we wander beyond the familiar scripts of performance, penetration, and orgasm, into a more expansive landscape of pleasure—one where curiosity becomes a ritual, attention becomes an offering, and connection can be its own kind of spell.
What if pleasure were a kind of magic? What if intimacy invited us to unlearn the rules, trust our curiosity, and discover the sacred in the ways we touch, speak, listen, and desire?

This is an invitation to loosen your grip on what you think you know about sex. To get curious about the body as it is. To honor desire without shame or pity. And to remember that pleasure belongs to all of us.
Access to pleasure is disability justice. Every body deserves the possibility of intimacy, desire, and erotic exploration.
So come with an open mind and a little enchantment. Let this conversation stir something awake in you.
✨ Pleasure Bound is a space for exploring sexuality, disability, embodiment, and the radical, liberatory magic of pleasure.
