'Do not dehumanise me. I am a disabled person and I’m not here to be your fetish'

I didn’t realise that by posting more photos of me, I’d open myself up to nauseating comments and messages regarding my disability

What I didn’t realise was that by posting more photos of me, I’d open myself up to nauseating comments and messages regarding my disability.I’m not completely naïve, I knew there’d be the odd ableist remark but not on a daily basis and not to the extent that my boyfriend has to vet my direct message requests to make sure they’re from genuine people and not someone telling me that they’ve never ‘tried a chick in a wheelchair’.

Surely I wait patiently for men online to present themselves to me? Surely I don’t have any other option. He’s doing me a favour, right? What a solider he is, taking one for the team – trying a chick in a wheelchair like some sort of philanthropist.Minimising me to nothing more than my wheelchair is massively ableist and it’s downright ridiculous to think disabled people can’t find themselves a partner.

TBF when you put pictures into the public domain then you cant really have a say in what people feel or want to do over them pictures. Her intentions are good and i understand this makes her feel crap. but again you only have so much control once you publicise ur pictures online

I'll give you $500 if you roll your wheelchair over my erect penis
