[The sex life of paraplegics and sociological aspects]

700 able-bodied subjects were interviewed on their views concerning the sexual life of paraplegics. Results of this study, which was not carried out on a national level, are reported. The need for such a study stemmed from a previous inquiry in paraplegics. The different answers are analyzed. They mirror the scope of the problem and point out that the struggle against "human barriers" should be a concern for practitioners.
