Advocates of the term argue that ableism is, like Racism , and Sexism , a reaction of main-stream Society on the derogatory physical or intellectual capacities in combination with behaviour of the Disabled person. An ''ableist'' society treats able-bodied people as the standard of ‘normal living’. This results in public and private places & services, education and social work that are built to serve 'standard' people, without too much disability. In an ''inclusive'' society, on the other hand, all products and services are fully accessible and usable for as much people as possible. An ''ableist'' society tends to isolation, where an ''inclusive'' society tends to '' Integration '' or '' Inclusion ''. ORGANISATIONS WORKING AGAINST ABLEISM
