Wheelchair Sex Offers Opportunities For Fulfilling Sexual Desire

If you’re dealing with a disability, wheelchair sex is one way to keep your lovemaking moving forward. Some disabled people consider their wheelchair to be an extension of their bodies and say this attitude makes for unique and fun encounters. By combining creativity and patience with a willingness to experiment, wheelchair sex can offer both partners a satisfying experience.

Achieving the sexual positions you want can depend on the flexibility of the wheelchair. Does it have footplates, backrest and armrests that can be repositioned? Does it tilt? Can the person in the chair safely slide forward to the edge? This is important if you want to achieve penetration.

Further, the mobility level of both partners will impact how wheelchair sex unfolds for you. Arm and leg strength, hip movement, flexibility–all will impact what you can do. Of course, there’s only one way to find out and that’s to try! Plus you can always bring sex toys into the mix if intercourse isn’t an option (of course, you can bring sex toys into the mix if intercourse is an option just to broaden your spectrum of pleasure!).

Wheelchair sex can offer creative opportunities for intercourse depending on where you place it and what position you want to achieve. For example, if a man is in the chair, roll it up to the edge of a bed, chair or couch where the woman is waiting backwards for him. She can slide herself onto him for some belly-to-butt action. Another common position is for the woman to be on the disabled man’s lap, which offers that all-important face-to-face and eye contact (and is most comfortable if the wheelchair arms fold away).

A wheelchair can also offer unique opportunities for oral sex limited only by your imagination. If mobility and strength allow, a woman can position her genitals near the man’s mouth in a variety of positions.

And don’t forget the role that sex lubricants can play to help you on your way. They can help if the woman does not experience natural vaginal lubrication.

Other useful devices can be penis pumps or cock rings to maintain erections. Sex swings or seats might also be options for you to explore.

Harnesses with dildos allow hands-free penetration. Pillows can be your best friend when you’re trying to achieve comfort.

Depending on the situation, some third-party attendants who assist the disabled person are specifically trained, or at least open to helping with, sexual matters. Communication with that person is very important if they're going to be involved in this aspect of your life.

Even if one partner has limited sensation, sex doesn’t have to be left on the back burner. After all, lovemaking isn’t just physical; it’s mental, too.

Notes Graham Streets in his article, Wheelchair Sex After Spinal Cord Injury on the Mad Spaz Club website, “Healthy love making is about pleasing your partner. The person with limited sensation from spinal cord injury often derives great joy and sexual satisfaction from simply pleasuring their partner.”
