Adjusting to My Sexual Body with an Ostomy // Arousability // August 2021

“Ultimately I have learned that there is no destination, no beginning and end; there is only the continual journey of radical self-acceptance. Some days are harder than others, and at times I feel as though I am treading water. When I feel this way, I try to think of how far I have come since my surgery, and I make an effort to remember that progress is not always linear.”

GoAskAlex // Arousability // August 2021

In her first piece for Arousability, Alex shared her story of adjusting to her body post-colectomy, both on and off screen. Read (or listen to) this first-hand account on how she processed the myriad of emotions she faced when coming to terms with these physical changes. Read the full story HERE.

GoAskAlex is an award-winning 18+ performer, feminist, and advocate for the representation of disabled bodies in pornography. She has spent the past six years as a webcam model and adult content creator. After becoming an ostomate in 2019, she focused her career on advocating for underrepresented bodies in adult media. She has since then been featured in XBIZ magazine (including a cover photo as their first ever model with an ostomy) and was featured in Hustler E-Magazine for her “Disabled Sex Workers” Calendar. Most recently, she won the 2020 XBIZ Awards for ‘Best Inked Model”.
