Scenario

When occupational exposure affects intimate relationships

My partner works at the chemical plant and brings home residue on their clothes and skin, and I'm pregnant and terrified but they say the company assures them it's safe, and we're not talking about how this is affecting our intimacy and my trust.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Love requires physical closeness while protection demands distance, creating an impossible geometry of care.
