Editor's Notes
- #30: Increasingly, people with disabilities have positive and fulfilled sexual lives. But sexual problems remain, not because of individual incapacity, but because of prejudice, discrimination, and structural barriers Assumptions about people with disabilities That we are asexual, or at best inadequate That if we are not married or in a long-term relationship, it is because no one wants us and not through a personal choice to remain single or live alone That if we do not have a child, it must be the cause of abject sorrow to us and likewise never through choice Denial of sex People with disabilities are often not welcome in nightclubs and other social venues where sex is on the agenda. Clubs designed for sexual interaction are often not designed for the disabled. Living in a home or other facility some feel that staff deny them the right to form emotional or sexual attachments to other patients. Difficulty in finding partners People with disabilities often face barriers to environments where nondisabled people make contacts that lead to sexual encounters or romantic relationships. Computer chat rooms or advertisements in lonely hearts newspaper columns provide an option to those with physical mobility difficulties. But these options are not usually accessible to people with visual impairments.
