Day 943

Most of society is of the view that “disabled” means less than that’s why they do the things that they do – that’s what I keep learning 🙁

It’s 5 : 30 PM on day 943 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself a boiled egg for breakfast, drink milk by myself, pray,  read Leviticus 23, publish my Disability of the Day feature, practice typing with both hands, practice typing with both hands, prepare my Kid of the Week feature for tomorrow, feed myself rice and curry for lunch and spend time with my brother.

Today I stumbled upon The sex workers giving disabled people a chance to live out their dreams – an article on The Guardian about a forthcoming Channel 4 documentary, Can Have Sex Will Have Sex, featuring the sex lives of four disabled people, one of whom loses his virginity to an escort who has been hired by his mother – I was deeply offended that some parents would hire sex workers to be with their children I’d like to think someone was with me because he wanted to be not because he was paid to be I guess it goes back to that whole thing of society thinking  “disabled” means less than. Are you of the view that “disabled” means less than?
