Kink and Disability Links; Access is for Everyone

[profile] awils1 posted this in [community profile] disability: Kink, disability, and ableist prescription of what we are allowed to do; a set of 3 links.

I particularly liked this passage from a feminist pro-SM website:
Expandthis might be TMI for some of you; political thoughts on pain play; stuff I'm thinking about because of kink bingo )
***

Just thought that was interesting. All of the links are interesting!

Also I made my first post to [community profile] access_fandom; check it out. One thing I like out about the word "Access" is that is not specific to those of us who identify as disabled Access benefits everyone whether they identify as disabled or not.

A good example is curb cuts, which are in place legally for wheelchair users. They also benefit people with strollers, wagons, wheeled luggage, hand carts, and probably other things I'm not thinking of. Same with automatic door openers. Same with water service, quiet places, etc. Having a more accessible world is in some ways about having a more usable and humane world.
