ah thank you. i knew there was something that was illegal along those lines.

Booyhoo, it is legal to pay for sex, and it is legal to be paid for sex. It is illegal to solicit in a public place and to "kerbcrawl". It is also illegal to control and to profit from the sexual activities of prostitutes. Otherwise, no probs atm.

A website dedictated to escorts willing to work with the disabled. I am a great believer in the rights of consenting adults to do what they wish with their bodies, and am heartened by the comments so far.

paying for sex is legal? since when?

I worked in nursing homes and although it never happened it wasn't something we could or would try and stop as they were consenting adults.

We did have residents visiting each others rooms though

Legally-competent adults do legal things in their own home; landlord allows them to enjoy privacy of home.
Whether I like said legal activities is neither here nor there.

My opinion is if the participants are consenting adults (disabled or not disabled) then there is no issue.

I would wonder the same as others, surely you state your opinion in your OP!

And I think that sex is not a right because someone has "needs".

Good point JustAHolyFool
Why do people ask others' views without stating their own...very odd.

It's also here:

Mail item

I have to agree with the top rated comments there...

..these people are humans and not vegetables and shouldn't be deprived of a sex life if they want one.
