He does know and is sensitive that some people get awkward with discussing issues concerning sexuality or, as I get it, sexual activities of disabled persons…or lack of it. Sometimes people are very careful about discussing such topics for fear hitting a nerve that sometimes they quit entirely on talking about it when a disabled person is around. Truth to tell, some disabled persons indeed shun away from topic because of terrible pain they feel on not being able to do sex as normal people would anymore. However, getting an appropriate audience who wouldn’t react too violently on topic of sexuality may be a good way to overcome people’s unease about it.

Whatever you choose to acquire, remember that it will have to depend on condition of disabled who’s going to use mechanism and what are her/his limitations as far as mobility on a certain mechanism is concerned. That limitation will have to come from a doctor’s or a health care professional’s assessment.-30-
