So … Can You Have Sex?

It’s the question every nondisabled person wants to know. Now, when they bug you for an answer, send them to, “How People With Disabilities Have Sex.” Published on Broadly, Vice.com’s feminist channel this past September, it’s making the rounds again and we shared it on our Facebook page on June 11.

Our fans got creative with their comments:

Darren Sheens: It’s usually in the top five questions, people are curious creatures. My partner has a shirt that says on the front, “NO, I’m not his carer,” and on the back, “Yes, we do have sex.”

Billy Lee Sharkey: Who asks that question? If asked, just say, “Get naked, I’ll show ya.”

Mystie Brook: My sexual preference is often. (The sticker on my wheelchair.)

Tony Hopstetter: I usually say, “once you go gimp, all others are limp,” and that shuts them up.
