I love hearing stories about sex doing more for humans that just helping them procreate. When sex is literally, as silly as this sounds, doing God’s work from making women feel beautiful again to helping men maintain healthy cardio health, I smile inside. When naughty “bad” things are actually good for you? Yeah, that makes life worth living.

So when I read about a disabled man in a group home, paralyzed from the neck down and unable to talk, who was running over nurses and spilling trays, basically earning the title of “Official Group Home A**hole,” who was cured of his asshattery after getting some much needed manual stimulation (from one of the nurses no less) I thought, “Wow what a great nurse!”

Obviously, it isn’t too surprising that after this 22 year old got some much needed release he was more pleasant to be around, but going from “belligerent” to “serene,” now that’s a big change. It exemplifies just how important sex is to the human psyche (and to overall mental health). But it makes you wonder how priests and nuns, and all the other celibates of the world, do it. Is it unnatural to abstain?

A lot of people with disabilities are NOT getting laid. They’re not finding partners and for millions of them, it’s a frustrating daily predicament that never goes away. Try and finagle as they might, whether all they want is to masturbate, or find something even crazier like actual sex, it’s a disappointingly illusive endeavor. Can you imagine being shot down time and time again? This is why Belgium pays for it’s disabled citizens (if they want it) to have a sex worker visit on a monthly basis.

The sad part about this story is that someone walked in on the nurse one day, she was swiftly fired, and the guy went back to being an insufferable a**hole. Life isn’t fair. It’s really too bad they weren’t more smart about it and did it off-site.

What’s your opinion on all of this? As long as both adults are consenting (despite what the laws says), do you think it’s morally sound for a professional to provide sexual release for a person with a disability, in a group home environment?

    yes, as a SPECIAL EDUCATOR I felt that a disabled person also needs sex satisfaction because it is natural needs of every normal and disabled person. so as a humanbeing we should provide sexual facility to a disabled person.
