“Something about this pose brought about a sense of owning my body, my persona, my expression, my sensuality, my whole being. The drop of the hip made the bottom vertebrae curve, and appear out of alignment from the rest of my spine. A deviance, defiance of the normal straight stance. A resistance, a revolt of sorts.”

I realise that a lot of men want (and need) to dominate women not because it is mutually pleasurable but because it reinforces patriarchal hierarchies. The taboo around kink, as a larger space of exploration, and BDSM, as a part of it, only furthers the violence, intensifying the apparent mystery of these subjects.

We had gathered to [discuss] digital self-determination for people with disabilities… focusing on its core component: the self. How can I be myself in digital spaces? What gives me more of a sense of self in these spaces? How can design, technology and policy contribute to helping me determine myself in digital spaces?

The linkages between access, health, violence, the law, workplaces, gender and sexuality are really high and that’s why we all today—whether we are working on street accessibility, education, disability and employment—need to bring and build our collective understanding around gender and sexuality, keeping it at the core of our work with people, youth, and women with disabilities.

सामाजिक तौर पर अनेक उपेक्षित समूहों के लोगों को अपनी यौनिकता सिद्ध करने में अलग-अलग कठिनाईओं, क्षोभ, और दुख का सामना करना पड़ता है, लेकिन मेरे लिए तो यौनिकता के बारे में चर्चा कर पाना एक बौद्धिक कार्यकलाप के तौर पर सामने आया, एक ऐसा विषय जिस पर आसानी से रचनात्म्क चर्चा करना संभव था। सामाजिक विशेषाधिकार कुछ ऐसे ही काम करते हैं।

“City-living gave me talons and claws, but now I want to put those away. I want something else. I want softness. I want grass under my feet. I want the fist in my stomach to slowly unclench. I want the garden of my childhood to get lost in play while letting sunlit hours pass over to rosy dusk.”
