Accessible summary Relationships and sexuality are important for disabled people. Through the voices of 16 intellectually disabled adults, this paper shows what they consider to be important in areas such as education or personal relationships. Most of the people interviewed would like to have a partner and live together as a couple. Intellectually disabled people encounter many barriers to obtain certain basic rights. Summary This study starts from the premise that we are sexual beings, and therefore, sexuality is part of our lives and defines us as human beings. This is also true with regard to intellectually disabled people. Within the framework of broader qualitative research carried out in Spain, some partial results of an ongoing study aimed at finding out what a group of adults see as important in different areas of their lives are presented here. Through the personal narratives of 16 intellectually disabled people, this paper explores some of their ideas and demands about sexuality and their sexual lives. Most of the people interviewed expressed their desire to have a partner and to live as a couple. There is no doubt that many intellectually disabled people have greater control over their lives and the decisions that affect them, but as they tell us, the presence of old ideas can hinder them from securing their fundamental rights.

“…Durante el desarrollo de la entrevista y la técnica de la foto se integraron las decisiones de los participantes y se aseguraron las adaptaciones que permitiesen, como hicieran otros trabajos anteriores, que ninguno de los jóvenes fuese excluido de la investigación (Aldridge, 2007;Rojas, Susinos y Calvo, 2013). El siguiente cuadro recoge las decisiones metodológicas que fueron adoptadas: Tabla 3.…”

Recepción: 8 de marzo de 2017 Aceptación definitiva: 1 de septiembre de 2017 Resumen: El artículo presenta los principales resultados de una investigación cualitativa que tiene por objeto indagar en la experiencia subjetiva de 16 personas con discapacidad intelectual en torno a esferas vitales como la formación, el trabajo, la vivienda, las relaciones de pareja o la familia. La recogida de datos se lleva a cabo mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas y en profundidad. El proceso de investigación presta especial atención a los aspectos éticos que aquí son explicitados como elementos vertebradores en la toma de decisiones metodológicas. Con todo ello, accedemos a los relatos personales de los participantes para su posterior análisis. Los resultados se organizan en torno a cuatro ideas que visibilizan las circunstancias que rodean en la actualidad a algunas personas adultas con discapacidad intelectual, recurrentes en los relatos de los participantes.

“…In practice, despite the wavering political commitment to inclusive schooling, students who present a wide variety of diversities are enrolled in inclusive settings, and have been for over two decades (Cardona, 2009; Chiner and Cardona, 2013; López-Torrijo and Mengual-Andrés, 2014; Verdugo and Rodríguez, 2012). However, marginalisation in schools occurs upon specific student groups for a variety of divergent reasons, including disability, gender, socio-economic status and/or diverse cultural background (Echeida et al, 2009; Moriña Díez, 2010; Parrilla, 2008; Rojas et al, 2013; Susinos, 2007; Susinos and Parilla, 2008; Verdugo and Rodríguez, 2012).…”

This paper presents an overview of a situational analysis of inclusive schooling in Spain from the perspective of students with special educational needs. The purpose of this work was to learn how young people collectively considered their experiences of school inclusion. The participants-aged 12-19 years who attended six different settings-highlighted the school community, resources, teacher pedagogy, support and social cohesion as germane aspects of their inclusion. Through a presentation of these characteristics, this analysis demonstrates how schools can effectively fulfil the core requirement of teaching and supporting diversity and, in so doing, how they can incite included subjectivities of differently abled students. This analysis is positioned within the climate of economic instability in Spain, which threatens to derail the headway made towards inclusive schooling via the introduction of severe austerity measures.
