[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a permanent, physical disability that causes deformities. I have very noticeable length differential, must wear corrective shoes that are obvious, have severe scoliosis that I try to hide but I’m sure people can tell. I hate being in a bathing suit around people I don’t know or even in warm weather clothes. It’s not easy being disabled. In fact it really sucks. I’m not here to make you feel comfortable for the weird way I look and I cannot stand how disabled people are portrayed in entertainment (people to be pitied, as inspirations, oddballs, outcasts, charity cases, villains). Never just a regular person. So you can save your eye rolls and how it annoys you that people like us have a voice and we use it. I find this kind of stuff super offensive. And remember, unlike other marginalized groups, the disability community is something anyone can sudden find themselves being a part of, just like that. [/quote] +1000000000[/quote]
