Hi Eva
you've picked a very exciting and absorbing topic. I agree,
fear of (disabled) sexuality is very much alive in the able
bodied community - especially where able bodied means the
disability service and support industry! I don't have a
direct reference to marginalisation and sexuality but the
following reference might be helpful when you come to unpack
at the concept of sexuality.
Warner, M.1999. The Trouble with Normal: Sex, Politics and
the ethics of queer life New York, The Free Press
Also don't go passed stuff by Richard Shuttleworth and Tom
Shakespeare
Gook luck
best
Carol
