\u201cI am so honored and proud to be able to take part in this month\u2019s Sex Work Survival Guide Speaker Series and impart my knowledge as an ostomate with perceived physical limitations that would have kept me from having a career as an entertainer in the past,\u201d said GoAskAlex, who underwent a total abdominal colectomy in 2019 and now functions with an ostomy.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose ideas and assumptions about who sex workers are and what we are capable of are going away, thanks to organizations such as this one\u2026 the more we educate, motivate and let our voices be heard on local, national and international platforms, the better off we will be as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n
