It is noted in the article, correctly, that intellectually disabled people are given the same sort of protection as are children: they cannot consent to having sex because the law considers them incapable of giving such consent. However, whereas children will eventually become adults who WILL be able

The text says "49% will experience 10 or more abusive incidents." - however the reference reports that "49% of people with developmental disabilities, who are victims of sexual violence, will experience 10 or more abusive incidents. (Valenti-Heim, D., Schwartz, L. 1995. The Sexual Abuse

The term 'sexual abuse' is also contested. Some people don't like the use of the term 'sexual abuse' for disabled adults, as it is not usually used for non-disabled adults. An alternative could be 'sexual violence'. 'Sexual abuse' doesn't appear to be a contentious term when referring to sexual

I would like to update this page with some information about the UK. However, I am a little uncertain about how to incorporate the information into the structure of the page, or whether additional pages need to be created for different countries. If anyone with more experience watching this page

Some people using the social model of disability don't like the 'people with....' construction, because it suggests that any problems lie with the disabled person rather than their disabling social environment, or because it doesn't make sense somehow gramatically (a bit like saying 'people with

In the next couple of days, I plan on adding the likelihood that those with intellectual disabilities (ID) can experience symptoms of posttraumatic stress syndrome (PTSD) and differences in the expression of these symptoms compared to the general population when having experienced sexual abuse
513:– Hello all, I'm planning to do quite a bit of work improving this article. I would like to change the terminology used, including in the article title. I'm considering changing the title to "Sexual abuse and intellectual disability" to make it more accurate and concise. Reasons as follows:
288:
553:
People with intellectual disablities can also be perpetrators of sexual violence, and are the largest group of abusers of other people with intellectual disabilities (according to some UK statistics I've not checked yet). I feel that using 'and' instead of 'of' in the title will broaden the
442:
I thought the article needed an infobox because it was flagged as needing an infobox by the sexuality project! However, I've discussed this with someone on live chat and it seems better to get on with editing the article, and let someone who cares more about the infobox to add it later.
579:- this move will get rid of the all too common erroneous belief that "developmental disability" is an exact and perfect synonym for "intellectual disability" - there are many developmental disabilities that have absolutely no intellectual impairment component at all.
419:
Hmm, just curious, but why do you think the article needs an infobox? I don't think that should be taken for granted. I'd prefer navigation boxes first, but some articles are kinda hard to categorize like that. Generally, I think you shouldn't worry and just be
529:
Possible issue is that the term 'intellectual disability' might not apply to people with autistic-spectrum 'disorders', but perhaps they should be mentioned in the article? In which case, should autism be added into the title? This might make for an unwieldy
549:
I was thinking of keeping 'sexual abuse' in the title, because it is a commonly-used term that people are likely to search. The article should refer to both children and adults, and it would be possible to mention alternative terms in the body of the

Also, I am not sure that I have chosen the right infobox to copy, as there seem to be two main topics on this page: Learning
Disabilities and Sexual Abuse. Does anyone else involved have an opinion on which is the main topic?
395:
Again, it's me, the relative newcomer. I have tried to fix the issue with this article needing an infobox, but I can't work out how to do it. If someone with more experience is willing to teach me, I would be very grateful.
824:
624:
I've made some small improvements (I hope) to the structure of the article today. I want to add a number of new sections, but need to think about the order they should go in. Sections I feel are needed include:
533:
I'm not sure whether the 'people with....' construction is preferred to plain 'disability'. My main reason for suggesting changing it is because the advice on naming articles recommends avoiding plurals.
520:
The term 'developmental disability' includes some conditions not involving intellecutal impairment, whereas the article clearly refers to violence against people with some kind of intellectual impairment.
526:
From a search of various literature from
English-speaking countries, it seems that 'intellectual disability' would be the least ambiguous term to use. It is used by the World Health Organisation.

to give legal consent, ID adults generally will not reach such a stage. Does this not mean that society effectively prohibits ID adults from engaging in an activity which is fundamentally human?
