Abstract [eng] In Lithuania the integration of sexuality questions are widely analysed, however, there is a lack of the analysis of sexuality dimension. People with disabilities experience double discrimination: due to their disability and due to their sex gender. On the one hand they are considered asexual, on the other hand, regarding the re-productive potential, they are considered as dangerous. The article is based on a theoretical analysis of gender identity provided by scientific literature on education, philosophy and sociology. It constructs the model of sexuality with the features of its expression, including communication skills and their peculiarities, expression of emotions, social behaviour and skills, sexuality and destructive behaviour in interpersonal relationships, which has been assessed using the expert method, and the analysis of the features of the expression of sexuality through communication skills.
