Sex and disability are two topics that are not talked about enough together. These books put forward both real stories and practical knowledge.
The Ultimate Guide to Sex and Disability: https://amzn.to/3LjMsMQ
This book, while on the older side, provides practical advice regarding avenues for sexual expression for people with disabilities, as well as addressing systemic and structural barriers to sexuality for disabled people.
A Quick and Easy Guide to Sex and Disability: https://amzn.to/463F3Lo
This short read is largely focused on acceptance and how to start conversations. It has workbook space and is a good starting point for people looking to have more conversations around the interactions of their disability and sexual expression.
Disability Intimacy: https://amzn.to/3zuNIKn
In this new series of essays curated by Alice Wong, disabled people talk about the intimacy in their lives– the sexual and nonsexual alike. It is a well-rounded, human-centered approach on the ways in which disabled people personally experience and define intimacy in their lives. (P.S. Alice Wong’s first series of essays, Disability Visibility, is also a great read: https://amzn.to/4eZXjsR)
Sex and Disability: https://amzn.to/3LpOXx3
This series of essays veers into the academic. A good read for those interested less in specific advice, and more interested in cultural norms, bucking social expectations and queering disability theory.
QDA: A Queer Disability Anthology: https://amzn.to/3WiLAOI
This book is a largely essay series (with some comics thrown in for good measure) exploring life and sexuality at the intersection of queerness and disability. A unique read; less academic than Sex and Disability.
