**Description:**
"Sex, Gender and Disability in Nepal: Marginalized Narratives and Policy Reform" by Tulasi Acharya explores the often overlooked and marginalized experiences of women with disabilities in Nepal, particularly in the context of their sex lives. The book challenges prevailing disability policies that emphasize non-discrimination but often fail to address the specific needs and challenges faced by women with disabilities.
Drawing on critical sexual theory and postcolonial studies, the book delves into the narratives of Nepali female authors with disabilities, such as Radhika Dahal, Jhamak Ghimire, Sabitri Karki, Parijaat, and Mira Sahi. Through their stories and experiences, the author highlights the creative and fulfilling sexual lives of women with disabilities, countering the misconception that they are asexual.
The book also critically examines existing policy gaps and underscores the importance of gender-sensitive and inclusive policies that address the emotional and psychological needs of women with disabilities. It sheds light on how societal norms and taboos around sex and disability can create disparities between policies and the lived experiences of marginalized individuals.
"Sex, Gender and Disability in Nepal" offers valuable insights into the intersections of sex, gender, and disability in the context of the Global South, making it relevant not only to Nepal but also to scholars and researchers in gender studies, disability studies, international development, and postcolonial studies.
