But would you date a person who uses a wheelchair? Able-ism?

I have only had one opportunity to do this. And I would have dated him were it not for his parents enforcing teenage like rules on him to be home by dark, making dating with a night owl university student me at the time, in winter, near impossible.

Sure, why not?

I be honest, I could not say yes or no. It would depend on the person, just like anyone else one might date.

So long as he was un-theistic, funny, intelligent, kind, honest, a political progressive, open-minded, etc - all the usual things I would require in a date, yes. What is able-ism?

Ableism would be preferring people who are as able as you are, or discrimination against the differently abled.

@HippieChick58 Thanks. I didn't know that was an "ism" so you can tell how active I am kept by my dating life.

Sure.

I’m actually super attracted to a young colleague of mine who is an amputee that sometimes uses a chair, sometimes uses crutches, and sometimes uses a prosthesis. The problem is he discriminates against me because I happen to be a female. 😩

We could have races .

I don't see why not. There could be some logistical challenges, but life IS a logistical challenge.

Absolutely!

Why not?

Wheelchair = Yes
Dwarfs and Midgets = Yes
No Legs = Yes
No Hands, No Legs = Yes
Blind = Yes
Dumb = Yes
Tattoo queen = Yes

Did I miss anything? Underage = No.

All I want and want to give is trust, respect and response. Just hetero. Send me a message.

People in wheelchairs have sex, too. I recall the movie "Coming Home" ... a paraplegic Vietnam veteran found a girlfriend and the movie showed a really pleasant sex scene. Just because they can't to "everything" does not mean they do "nothing,."

Maybe. I attended swinger parties with people in wheelchairs present.

@William77 In both cases they were men in the wheelchair. They had sex, just like everybody else. It is not that challenging as one would think without experiencing it.

Yup
