Prejudice and Stigma Surrounding Disability in Chinese Society
It is uncommon for women with disabilities (WwD) to share their experiences publicly in China due to deep-rooted prejudice and stigma associated with disability. As a result, they often face physical and social barriers that limit their participation in society. People with disability frequently face discriminatory language in daily conversations and written communications. This creates a limited social space for people with disabilities. They face both negative attitudes and institutional barriers that exclude and marginalize them. A lot of people still believe that disabled people did bad things in their previous life, which is why they have a disability in this life to repay for their bad deeds.
