Isolated in specific agendas, women with disabilities remain excluded from discussions on the female universe.
There is no female theme that women with disabilities are not part of.
The disabled woman still carries the stigma of specificity, as if she were a creature that does not belong to the female universe, having space and say only in discussions, agendas, reports and events centered on the theme of disability.
Accompanying the many approaches to maternity issues during this week on portals, newspapers, magazines, radio, TV and social networks is the well-known absence of mothers with disabilities in the general news.
There is a focus on mothers without disabilities of children with disabilities, called atypical mothers, with the same observation as always, on the mission, pain, unconditional love, the luck of having a child with disabilities, the angel who came to teach, happiness in adversity.
It’s rare to find women with disabilities in stories about health, fertility, aging, work, youth, flirting, dating, or anything far from diversity.
If inclusion is not on the agenda, women with disabilities are excluded.
The observation of disability persists as a separate feature, which can only be specifically exposed and never mixed with another everyday topic.
It is absolutely necessary to give much more visibility to the disabled population in all sectors, just as it is essential to understand that there is no question in society that the disabled person does not belong to.
And no women’s theme that women with disabilities are not a part of.
