Descripción
Sumario:Women with intellectual and psychosocial disabilities, as victims of discrimination and stigma, are deprived of the exercise of their autonomy in many aspects, including sexual acts and abortion. This shows deficiencies in the genuine intersectionality between the gender and the disability agendas. Obstacles to the free exercise of sexuality entail the violation of the rights to legal capacity, autonomy and independent living, sexual rights and access to contraception. In particular, this article addresses legal abortion and its consequences in terms of the right to have sex. Regarding the interpretation of article 86.2 of the Argentinean Criminal Code, this article considers a scholarly piece and the decision of the Supreme Court of Argentina in the F.A.L. case. Both documents classify sex with women with disabilities as "improper rape", implying that this group does not have the chance to consent to such acts. This seems to infer that a supposed inability of those women to decide on their pregnancies has as a consequence their supposed inability to decide on their sexual lives. The article concludes that the Court's decision could have adopted alternative rationales and, consequently, a disability perspective.
