Reeves Foundation: Sex with a disability might not look or feel the same as able-bodied sex but it doesn’t mean that it should be any less enjoyable, you just need to get creative.

Sins Invalid is a performance project that incubates and celebrates artists with disabilities.  Their performance work explores the themes of sexuality, embodiment and the disabled body. They develop and present cutting-edge work where paradigms of “normal” and “sexy” are challenged, offering instead a vision of beauty and sexuality inclusive of all individuals and communities.
