The aim of this study was to diagnose the accessibility and inclusion of people with physical disabilities in cabarets in the city of São José do Rio Preto. The hypothesis was that these venues, despite having a licence to operate, do not have adaptations to include these people. This is a very relevant problem, because due to the social prejudice surrounding disabilities, in many cases paid sex is an important sexual manifestation. Another hypothesis is that the call girls don't want to or aren't prepared to serve people with physical disabilities, which creates a situation of exclusion. A third hypothesis is that disabled users make little use of these services due to the difficulties mentioned above, and do not take advantage of this type of leisure activity. To get the results, a checklist was applied to the cabarets, along with a qualitative interview with the call girls and another with men with physical disabilities. The results were analysed qualitatively and presented in tables and graphs.
