Samenvatting
In de wetenschappelijke literatuur bestaat tegenwoordig relatieve overeenstemming over het feit dat volwassenen met een verstandelijke beperking daadwerkelijk seksuele verlangens en verwachtingen hebben rond seksualiteit; verwachtingen waaraan men tegemoet wil komen binnen de grenzen van iemands beperkingen.
