“Beach Bodies” David Faganya and Gabe Barralaga


This slam poem shines a light on male body insecurity. These two men explain to us then there is also pressure on men to have a certain look. 

I really can’t say anything else about this poem other than to WATCH IT. It’s really beautiful and captivating, and you’ll be sure to get in a couple laughs. Perfect for people of all genders that identify with the struggle of “beach season.”

i’m a personal caregiver and my client and i had another check in about the ableism he’s been experiencing and he decided that it would be best to try a more direct approach in educating his family about his boundaries and bodily autonomy. we’re brainstorming ways to approach this and strategies to confront the situation without provoking a defensive response but any ideas would be appreciated. i’m particularly looking for articles or other resources for families of people with disabilities about how to support their loved ones with disabilities without being controlling or otherwise hindering their independence.

any ideas, links or boosts would be greatly appreciated.
