I have a whole new respect for sex workers after reading on this website.
http://www.tlc-trust.org.uk/services/index.phpIt is set up in in England for the disabled and after reading 3/4 of this page I am in tears and really appreciate what some of these people do. I have a lot of things to be grateful for and one of them is being able to take care of my own sexual needs; something I had never ever thought about before.
(I hope this does not get locked. This is a serious subject that I believe needs to be out in the open)

In fact, I think it may have been posted before in the Good News forum!
Oh, nope, it was in GD yesterday but there's nothing wrong with a second post.

the subject of the movie. He was in an iron lung from polio and only three muscles worked in his body. His sex worker helped him have actual penetration at age 38, because he didn't want to die a virgin. Guess more than three muscles worked... 
A documentary was made in the 1990's called, 'Breathing Lessons', also very good.
He died in 1999 at the age of 49.
The movie was pretty good, made me laugh and cry.
