Enabling romance Book

I picked up this book on a whim. As a blind person, I thought it might be an interesting read.

After finishing it, I personally feel that anyone should read this. No matter if you have a disability or not, I think it's highly informative and can open your eyes a bit.

This book mainly touches on people with physical disabilities. Generally men and women who don't have the use of arms, legs or both. However, they do touch on the more known disabilities--having no use of legs, arms or both. The deaf, the blind, individuals with severe breathing issues, dwarfism, etc.

At this point in time I'm 31 years old. I've been interacting with disabled people of all kinds for most of those years. Despite that, this book had me becoming aware of questions I didn't even know I had. Granted, I didn't exactly stop to contemplate how people in wheelchairs have sexual intercourse. And even if I had, that's an embarrassing subject to bring up even with close friends and family.

It sounds cliché, but I feel glad I read this book. I was astounded to learn how these individuals got around their physical limitations to wind up in successful and sexually pleasing relationships.

So I would suggest picking up this book. There are many stories and quotes from people with disabilities on their situations and how they made things work in a physical relationship/marriage.

As mentioned when I started this review, even if you're not disabled, I think this is something to read. I know from experience that individuals with little to no contact with disabled people think that when you've got a disability, your life is over. And even if you manage to live a comfortable existence, you're some kind of walking miracle.

Overall, this is an excellent book. I'm a firm believer in that a little bit of awareness can go a long way. I applaud these authors in thinking of the idea for this book and recommend everyone read it. Or perhaps give it to someone who is like the person I mentioned above.
