The Art of Playful Pleasure promotes the sexual well-being of
people experiencing illness, injury or disability. We want to
enable the sharing of ideas and experiences, and reviews of
equipment and other resources, by a virtual community of experts
by experience. We want to present an aesthetic which is elegant,
artistic and playful, welcoming a wide variety of people and
affirming the compatibility of disability and sexual pleasure.
Uniquely, this forum will not be the clinical voice of medical
professionals. Instead, by allowing disabled people to share
their experiences, it will help normalise curiosity about
disability and sexual pleasure a subject which is often
painfully taboo. Unlike a medically sponsored site it will not
pretend to have all the answers, however visitors will feel
affirmed by the site’s aims and aesthetic, and because they will
have found an ‘online tribe’ asking their kind of question.
We are a group of people who face multiple barriers to sexual
pleasure. For example, research suggests disabled people are
often mistakenly seen as asexual. Furthermore, there is evidence
that health care professionals do not broach the subject of sex
with patients even though they are professionally obliged to do
so. Some disabled people have managed to negotiate these
barriers, and many may be keen to share their experiences, help
others and learn more themselves. Currently we are unaware of
any accessible website that has mainstream appeal that
facilitates this.
