37% of the interviewed ones reported though it seems to be strange it is that they ask that the society must create conscience for the vulnerable sectors and not to become indifferent before a population who also is productive the country arranges, which means that the society to one does not accept in the same one that the disability is a part of the human diversity. 22% of the interviewed ones reports that there must be social supports to the persons with disability. 14% of the interviewed ones recommended the legislation, 13 % report that it must exist more I respect the persons with disability.

XIX. Gender and disability

Table 16. Gender and disability
Interaction Number of persons Percentage
Total 100 100%
Best is to Persons with disabilities than women 3 3%
This is equal to the Persons with disabilities than women 70 70%
It is worse for people with disabilities than women 27 27%

Table 16 reflects a very high degree of discrimination in comparison to gender and disability to such a degree that the majority of respondents expressed that it is just disabled people that women, being a highly patriarchal country where women are also marginalized to the background and women with disabilities are locked and marginalized to family life but also a high degree of participant population express that it is worse for people with disabilities to the woman only reason this classification are subject to being disabled in the sense that many of our interviewed experienced degrees of discrimination that have forbid relate to other people and even their own families.

XX. Ethnicity and disability

Table 17. Ethnicity and disability
Interaction Number of persons Percentage
Total 100 100%
It is better to People with disabilities Ethnic groups 5 5%
This is equal to People with disabilities Ethnic groups 66 66%
It is worse for people with disabilities Ethnic groups 29 29%

Honduras is characterized by its diversity of ethnic groups innumerable but just the lack of awareness of society reflects ethnicities are treated like a person with disabilities where by his humility are discriminated against and even degree of racism, to the extent that they are also object classification by color, economic status.

Also a high number of respondents argue that ethnic groups are treated better than a person with disabilities, because they believe that a person in spite of belonging to an ethnic group has the ease of mobility that do not have a disabled person and has other argument that makes them a little better their lives.

And to a lesser degree of the respondents are of the view that disabled people are treated better than people of other ethnicities.

XXI. Social class and disability.

Table 18. Social class and disability
Interaction Number of persons Percentage
Total 100 100%
Best is to Persons with disabilities poor people 5 5%
This is equal to the Persons with disabilities poor people 75 75%
It is worse for people with disabilities that the poor 20 20%

As unfortunately our country is distinguished by the social rankings reflect the results as a result of the experiences reported by the participants expressed that it is equal to a disabled person to a poor person judged only for their property, which they think that being poor is also a discriminative treatment disability which poor people are subjected.

In many participants expressed that it is differently or worse a person with disabilities to poor people because poor people say that one can live with dignity.

And a small number of our respondents expressed feeling that it is better to a person with disabilities to poor people this only comes to confirm the violation of human rights of persons on grounds of disability and economic status.
