Would you date someone in a wheelchair?
 
Hmmmm?

I could, probably due to my upbringing being around people with disabilities anyway and I'm just weirdlol but if they look good and are a nice person then hells yeah.

Can you see past the chair or am I the only one?

joeysteele 19-05-2011 10:22 AM

Yes, no hesitation.

Niamh. 19-05-2011 10:24 AM

Probably if I was attracted to them but tbh I haven't been around many people who are in wheel chairs

CharlieO 19-05-2011 10:25 AM

If they had the same qualities that would draw me to a person with no disabilities then it wouldn't make a difference.

:laugh:

Nah, but seriously, I could definitely see past the wheelchair. As long as somebody can make me laugh and washes regularly, it doesn't matter one bit about a disability

Suze 19-05-2011 11:13 AM

How you relate to the person should matter, not the disability.

Beastie 19-05-2011 11:19 AM

Yeah. Look at Artie from Glee. He's well fit!

Stu 19-05-2011 11:21 AM

Honestly no. I don't think I would be able to look past it.

Judas 19-05-2011 11:39 AM

I would like to say yes, but sadly no. I don't think I would feel there could be so much emotional contact, for some reason I think I would see them in a emotional sense as sterile? I know how rude, and wrong, that sounds but I think it's just because the only person I've ever met in a wheelchair was really boring and closed-book, so it's kind of associated in my mind. Unless of course I was with, and in love with them before they entered the wheelchair.

One of our FMs is in a wheelchair - she is lovely person and I'd marry her in a second if not already taken :bawling:

I have one testicle gone and prone to cancer - should I have a badge and you start a thread about me?

"Would you date a bloke with only 1 bollock?"

How low or unthoughtful can TiBB become?????? Bring back Stace - at least she did it naiively instead of rude

Well screw the fact that I grew up around people with disabilities, and to add my father also had testicular cancer and had one removed, so don't even try opening that kind of can of worms.

I don't see how it's rude, I think you're just trying to create a reaction. Good luck with that.

Why though? You can't judge every person in a wheel chair from 1 person you knew, that's crazy!

Crimson Dynamo 19-05-2011 01:16 PM

no i would not

Tom4784 19-05-2011 01:19 PM

Yes, I don't think it'd bother me in the slightest.

Ninastar 19-05-2011 01:19 PM

Honestly, I wouldn't. I would feel too guilty. Even though it has nothing to do with me they were perfectly happy even though they were in a wheelchair i would feel bad for them.

Chuck 19-05-2011 01:41 PM

I feel extremely guilty, awful, horrendous and shallow to say this, but I wouldnt. :sad:

Beso 19-05-2011 01:44 PM

Yes, unless it was that bloke off of the strangeways documentary on monday night.

Shaun 19-05-2011 01:44 PM

important question: can they get it up?

[unless they're female in which case sure]

Chuck 19-05-2011 01:45 PM

I think they can, but the positions would be limited. :sad:

I think it depends where they're paralysed etc some can/some can't

Chuck 19-05-2011 01:54 PM

Omgz, it must feel awful to not able to get it up. :sad:
A man that can't get it up, is a man without dignity. :sad:
