During every sexual encounter I find myself overly-conscious of the way that my body differs from the \u2018conventional\u2019 &#8211; it\u2019s not something that I forget, but instead must choose to accept each time I am intimate,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUltimately, 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.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo anyone who is struggling with their sexuality amidst a disability or chronic illness, I would say this: it is a journey of ups and downs, and as long as you do your best to be kind to yourself in the process, then you are on the right track.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShowcasing my disability in porn isn\u2019t just a revolutionary act, it\u2019s an empowering act of rebellion that aims to emphasize disabled folks\u2019 lack of representation onscreen and in adult media, and why I choose not to hide my ostomy in my videos. My goal is to normalize bodies like mine in this industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alex was excited to have the opportunity to write for ParlourTalk.com, as the thought-provoking blog gives a voice to people with impactful personal stories around topics that may not be addressed in mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe more we interact with people who experience life differently than we do, the better we are able to understand, accept, embrace and include them\u2026 and I\u2019m thankful to Parlour Talk for giving me a platform to celebrate diversity in all of its amazing forms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.goaskalexonline.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/www.goaskalexonline.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNG5oEPGOvLlX7Erz_w8zXiOCqQ8ug\">GoAskAlexOnline.com<\/a>\u00a0and follow her on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/goaskalexonline?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/twitter.com\/goaskalexonline?lang%3Den&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHDTBhkcODW2n2ZsYx88T_Ql6fYkA\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/goaskalexonline\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/goaskalexonline\/?hl%3Den&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHKYdfGt_7TKzo0ldrHikODhGbXrg\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>ABOUT GOASKALEX:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>GoAskAlex is an adult model, onscreen performer and sex educator with the distinction of being the industry\u2019s first-ever ostomate since receiving a life-changing surgery in 2019: \u201cmy small intestine was diverted out through my abdomen, and I now wear a permanent medical device\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The auburn-haired British Columbia, Canada native &#8211; who launched her adult career in 2014 as a webcam model and online companion &#8211; has since taken the opportunity to use her high-profile platform to advocate for disabled and underrepresented bodies in adult media.<\/p>\n<p>GoAskAlex currently sits atop the 1% of content creators on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/goaskalexonline?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/twitter.com\/goaskalexonline?lang%3Den&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHDTBhkcODW2n2ZsYx88T_Ql6fYkA\">OnlyFans<\/a>,\u00a0is a top attraction over at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.suicidegirls.com\/girls\/askalex\/videos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.suicidegirls.com\/girls\/askalex\/videos\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFhsBqPKiC1cmz37EwopzPQyJ7ANw\">SuicideGirls.com<\/a>\u00a0and sells her original video clips on top sites such as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.manyvids.com\/Profile\/309097\/GoAskAlex\/Store\/Videos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.manyvids.com\/Profile\/309097\/GoAskAlex\/Store\/Videos\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNF5r_MwrG_fKpTcnRN9iLThkiVIDQ\">ManyVids<\/a>.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/iwantclips.com\/store\/838710\/GoAskAlex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/iwantclips.com\/store\/838710\/GoAskAlex&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFyuW6PaMeGzEBVRVMxCxeKQ7T2oA\">iWantClips<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.clips4sale.com\/studio\/162345\/goaskalex\/Cat0-AllCategories\/Page1\/ClipDate-desc\/Limit10\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.clips4sale.com\/studio\/162345\/goaskalex\/Cat0-AllCategories\/Page1\/ClipDate-desc\/Limit10&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEFt9PUn4wwgcaKHRBMsujuZ7Yzig\">Clips4sale<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>She has since been featured in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbiz.com\/features\/256350\/increasing-representation-for-sex-workers-with-disabilities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.xbiz.com\/features\/256350\/increasing-representation-for-sex-workers-with-disabilities&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1628028280498000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHsTIfPoAk_94zb3qKlOdS4FgUmrA\">XBIZ<\/a>\u00a0Magazine, posing for the cover as the trade publication\u2019s first-ever model with an ostomy, as well as Hustler E-Magazine to promote her inspiring Disabled Sex Workers Calendar.
