LOS ANGELES — Performer and content creator GoAskAlex will be appearing on the Canadian interview series “That Sex Show” tomorrow at 8 p.m. (EDT) on AMI-TV.

“The flame-haired Canadian entertainer, entrepreneur and filmmaker will join host Rachele Manett for an enlightening discussion about her daily life as the adult industry’s first-ever ostomate — and her relationship with her body and sexuality after undergoing a total abdominal colectomy surgery for her ulcerative colitis,” said a rep.

Alex touted the opportunity to speak about her experiences.

“I am so excited for the opportunity to openly talk about my ostomy and my experiences working as an entertainer with a visible medical device, which is not often seen, discoursed or represented in adult film,” she said. “In fact, the vast majority of bodies aren’t often given a platform in an industry that seeks to showcase a narrow presentation of what they believe viewers find appealing… but that narrative is slowly beginning to change.”

She went on to note, “I’m so grateful that media is shining a light on the sex lives — and misconceptions about people with disabilities having sex. With more knowledge and understanding, there is more acceptance and compassion, and more visibility and representation in both adult and mainstream media.”

The episode will also be available online at AMI.ca.
