The stereotypes:
In his 1991 study, Paul Hunt found that there are 10 stereotypes of disabled people, used in the media:- The disabled person as pitiable or pathetic
- An object of curiosity or violence
- Sinister or evil
- The super cripple
- As atmosphere
- Laughable
- His/her own worst enemy
- As a burden
- As Non-sexual
This is Dixon from 90210 who is worried he will never be able to have sex with his girlfriend again after he was involved in a very dangerous car crash that left him in a wheelchair. - Being unable to participate in daily life
