The too hard basket [to be broadcast 12th Dec 2009]
6th Dec - Touching Base Webmaster
Disabled people are rarely touched in a loving way or thought of as sexually desirable, yet they have the same need for a sexual life as everyone else. John Blades, who has a major disability himself, talks to sex workers about why they work with disabled clients and the importance of touch to every human being.
He also meets other people with disabilities; Gary who has burns to 60% of his body and finds that being touched by his wife on his burnt skin makes him feel desirable and Cateline, who has cerebral palsy, and whose first sexual experience was with a sex worker at the age of sixteen.
