GIL. - Masturbation with movement handicap

Masturbation support system

The motivation behind this product was to give people with disabilities the chance to experience the joy and dignity of sexual autonomy. The ability to reach orgasm by oneself is something that able-bodied people take for granted. It is not a luxury, but a core element of sexual freedom and an important factor in maintaining physical and mental health. Gil is a device that attaches to a bed and allows people with muscular and motor disabilities to masturbate without human assistance.

JURY STATEMENT

This design breaks through taboos with an empathetic and holistic view of healthcare for people with disabilities.
