I am unaware on what basis you make the assumption that I am not disabled, but yes, it is a correct one.

Of those 3600 people who would choose to pay for sex, how many were women? I know not a single disabled woman who has ever paid to have sex with someone, I know quite a number who has accepted money for sex because they were in dire financial or practical straights.

I also know of formerly healthy women who have been left disabled after being involved in the sex industry, either through sexual trauma, or through physically abusive experiences.

Its not a question of “accepting what you are given and not exercising choice”, its about holding disabled people to the same standards as everyone else. Being disabled doesn’t give you a “get out of gaol free” card.

Many people have this attitude that disability means we should accept what we are given and not exercise choice. Commenting from a position of privilege of not being disabled about what you assume disabled people would think seems a little self centred. How many disabled people have you actually asked? I have been in online groups of over 4,000 before and 90% would choose a sex worker if they could (quite a few had)..

I am not an expert on mental health just related to physical disability so I can’t judge on that area.

Furthermore with the way the DLA cuts are going, particularly with mental health, you will see more and more disabled women pushed into the sex industry to survive. They are not entering the industry because of a desire to have sex, but a desire to keep a roof over their heads.

The sex industry is a disability rights issue, but not in the way that you seem to think.

Some disabled people chose to use a sex worker because they have no other choice, yet the act on both sexes for choosing this as their only option to experience physical intimacy well some feminist comments show not only how little they understand but also how little their care from behind their rose tinted glasses.

“According to an “offender study” by the University of Amsterdam, there were 201 reports of anti-gay violence in that city in 2007 – and researchers believe for every reported case there are as many as 25 unreported ones. Two thirds of the predators are Muslim youths”:

As for Morocco, well, those who say it is gay friendly are living dangerously:

“Islamic fundamentalists have also become noticeably more aggressive towards gay men in recent years, no doubt also due to the increase in prostitution. Blackmail and arrests are on the increase again correspondingly. Even the mere suspicion that one may have had sex can be enough. In addition, young native men may be followed by the police, who will then beat information on the goings-on in hotel rooms or private holiday apartments out of them. We can therefore only advise you to proceed with caution!”

“While Morocco is considered to be more tolerant than its neighboring Islamic countries, same-sex relationships are unlawful in the country, with offenders spending six months to three years in jail, according to the International Business Times.”

I don’t thing I’d like to risk being seen as gay in a Muslim country these days. Not even in a muslim area in Amsterdam.
