Sex Toys for Disabled People w/ Andrew Gurza&Heather Morrison - Ep 179 - a podcast by Sunny Megatron & Ken Melvoin-Berg | Pleasure Podcasts
from 2021-12-06T13:00
This week we talk with Andrew Gurza & Heather Morrison, the brother-sister team behind the first line of sex toys for people with disabilities, Bump’n. The idea started a few years ago with a chance conversation about Andrew’s increasing difficulty with self-pleasure due to Cerebral Palsy. Last week, the company they founded launched their first product. Some of what we talk about:
- Ways the sexual health & wellness industry ignores the needs of people with physical limitations
- The challenges of founding a sex tech startup with no prior experience
- How user feedback about The Joystick--a huggable, humpable, 3 ft long device designed for hands-free pleasure--uncovered profound intimacy benefits for people of all abilities
- How preliminary research lead to a partnership with a leading design expert and a groundbreaking book detailing personal stories and insights about sex & disability
