You should have replied "It's because I'MMMM GREEEAAATTTT!" Years ago I had a really cool picture of me sitting on a trail behind a big coiled and rattling diamondback we found while hiking as my facebook picture, but I caved and took it off after a couple weeks of randoms leaving comments on the picture asking if I liked big/fat/long snakes and then my new-to-facebook mom seeing the comments without knowing that not everyone blocks all people they don't know and continually asking why I have friends who talk to me like that.

Pick posted:There are many deformities that can't be "fixed" and the attitude that they need to be "fixed" contributes to the poor self-image that leads to people closing off and not developing the skills they need. One of my best friends is an amputee and she's just going to have to be an amputee. But she still puts herself out there a lot better than most people I know. I was thinking along the line of facial injuries / abnormalities. I had an injury as a kid which involved bone fractures, and the after effects only became worse over the years as I grew. Eventually I had it corrected surgically and it took my appearance to at least where the problem didn't stick out like a sore thumb and dominate my face. Some people might be able to rock an injury and own it, but I didn't have the confidence to do so, that's for sure. So that's why I say if something like that is holding a person back, and it's possible for it to be improved, it's worth saving up the money. At least it was for me.

Amputee has to be the most commonly fetishised of disabilities and while many people seem offended at the idea of people having a fetish for them I've never seen how someone being specifically aroused by people who look like you is a bad thing or at all incompatible with them also wanting a meaningful relationship with you.

If it were only an aesthetic matter that would be one thing, but her amputation still introduces a lot of pain and limitations to her life. I lived with her for a short while to get out of a bad rental situation, and she crawls around her home most of the time because her prosthetic is uncomfortable and the more she uses it, the more it hurts. (Obviously it's a leg amputation, not an arm.) Personally, I have joint and circulation problems with their own baggage, and though I'm happy to show off a few "tricks" (like the toe gap around the beer bottle) they're sprinkles on a poo poo cupcake. You can't blame someone for having a fetish for a certain appearance, but it needs to be tempered by genuine empathy. I am not convinced that disability porn gives anyone anything but the "taboo" rush and that is unacceptably superficial for something that causes someone physical pain and often social ramifications as well.

I am not convinced that disability porn gives anyone anything but the "taboo" rush and that is unacceptably superficial for something that causes someone physical pain and often social ramifications as well. I guess so, but I wouldn't rule out people being capable of having both a fetish and being compassionate. I mean, I will tolerate a lot of things to be with someone I'm attracted to, and support them even if doing so is a burden that is unrelated to the things that turn me on about them. I think someone with a fetish for a disability is more likely to not consider the less fun parts a deal breaker than someone who doesn't, especially given that the supply of their desired partner is so limited that they have to put up with more than other people will. Also even in nonfetishistic circumstances many men like the opportunity to support a woman. My mum has had crippling arthritis from a young age, and I'm pretty sure the men she dates love being able to care for her when she has a flare up. I know market analogies are frowned upon, but pursuing a niche strategy works perfectly well for businesses, especially since the internet has made it easier for consumers to find their product. That people develop fetishes for people outside the normal definition of beauty seems like a gift for the fetishised. Fewer people are attracted to them, but the ones who are happen to be very attracted to them, as if they were given the same share of boners caused as everyone else, it was just divvied up amongst a smaller group of penises.

Btw I actually have the opposite of an amputee fetish. I like women with more limbs than normal. Like, waaaaaay more. I was very disappointed when The Human Centipede turned out to be appealing to a different fetish, as if scat fetishists aren't already catered to enough.

I'm thinking it's a similar feeling to the guys who disagree when told that there is no undatably ugly or that they don't have to be a jock to find a partner. There isn't any lack of compassion for the experience of living with a disability there, just a disagreement that the burden has to extend to being denied genuine love even by the limited people who find their aesthetic appealing, although I agree it is harder to find and that sucks. Last night I was posting from a disco for disabled people that I volunteer at every second week. I specialise in intellectual disability so definitely aren't attracted to my clients, but I do enjoy caring for people and I have plenty of other male coworkers who feel similarly. There are definitely men who wouldn't mind and might even specifically enjoy being able to care for a romantic partner even if they are significantly disabled. I don't feel it is compassionate to tell someone with a disability that poo poo just hopelessly sucks for them. I've also seen people imply that anyone with a fetish for them must be a disgusting weirdo, which seems like a crueler thing to say to the fetishised than the fetishee.

Reconstructive surgery after a mastectomy due to cancer isn't the same thing as 'I want bigger tits'. There's still the underlying idea that the way that the person naturally (or, as a function of medical necessity) looks is "wrong" because it doesn't conform to a very precise uniform standard. Because of the way that women are treated when they lose their breasts, it's often important to their quality of life to have fake breasts inserted, but such pressures are the same pressures who drive women with extremely small natural breasts to get fake breasts. In either case, the reason to surgically affect their appearance is aesthetics (fake breasts don't make milk so they can't do functional breast things, and in fact cosmetic surgery can make breasts less functional as breasts.) The terminology that we use disguises the fact that the rationale is always to make people's appearance "socially acceptable" when it should be socially acceptable to appear however you are. If it's merely a matter of "self-image" then cosmetic surgery is just as justified, since that's what it's for also, to make the appearance match an internal perception of the self. I strongly recommend "Saving Face: Disfigurement and the Politics of Appearance" which discusses how there's a lot of internal inconsistency in the changes we allow people to affect upon themselves. For example, why cosmetic breast enhancement is seen as trashy, but braces are practically mandatory for high-income persons (at least in the United States).

No he didn't you loving idiot, he's saying having a physical deformity shouldn't be treated or talked about like an aesthetics death sentence. You might personally find it creepy but you're also not in the position of being an amputee and people have different wants and emotional needs. He's saying that you're more likely to have a successful relationship if someone is physically attracted to you, which is true of all people, and we all are more attracted to certain features than others. Simply having a fetish doesn't preclude having an emotionally fulfilling relationship (see: couples who are into S&M stuff, which is arguably a lot more destructive than someone getting a boner for a girl missing her leg, assuming he doesn't then cut off the other one)
