Abstract
This work exposes some of the issues that directly affect the way of understanding and approaching the reality of people whose global functioning differs from the standards generally accepted as “normal.” In the first part, the issues that affect the use of language and its influence on the cultural and symbolic representation of disability are reviewed; The following are the considerations on personal and sexual assistance as the basis of an effectively independent life. Third, two classic bioethical questions are debated, abortion and euthanasia, their relationship with the politics of tolerance and their implications in the lives of people with functional diversity. Finally, alternatives are explored, to move from the politics of tolerance to the “politics of desire.
