No Kamasutra For The Disabled?

Looks like they don’t need to get laid…

I watched a couple.

Their kiss drew uncomfortable stares from other customers. Why? Because he was in a wheelchair.

That’s when I realized — we still live in a society that refuses to accept that people with physical disabilities are sexual beings.

When was the last time you thought about the sex life of someone with a disability?

Probably never, because in your head, they just don’t fuck. Well, surprisingly (or not), they do fuck.

And they’re happier for it.

What deeply pisses me off is this collective hypocrisy.

We live in a time where sex is everywhere — in advertising, social media, entertainment.

But when it comes to disabled people?

Complete silence.

As if the wheelchair came with a chastity certificate.

I googled “sex positions for people with reduced mobility.” You know what I found? Practically nothing. Meanwhile, there are thousands of Kama Sutra variations for people without disabilities.
