Accessible Intercourse 3: How offensive is the word 'retard'?

| 0 comments

This week: 1. making out with deaf guys just because they’re deaf; 2. disabled and pregnant?; 3. calling Dan Savage: defamation alternatives. Post your questions here.

TRANSCRIPT

Caitlin: What questions do we have?

Toshio: Well, we have one question, and it’s from Gabby in Berkeley, California, and it says, “I made out with a deaf guy just to see if I could make out with a deaf guy, and is that wrong?”

C: OK.

T: It’s a good question, and I have to say, I don’t think that it’s the worst thing that you could ever do.

C: No, and how does Gabby know that this deaf guy wasn’t just trying to make out with a hearing girl?

T: That’s true – he could’ve been playing the same thing on her, that she thought she was playing on him.

C: A lot of times I think the stigma that’s attached to disability makes able-bodied people want you even more.

T: Just a little bit.

C: Because it makes it dangerous, and it’s something you’re not supposed to be attracted to
