But other people may think that is "sick" to consider a girl in a chair or disabled atractive, sexy, etc. I am a very vain, confident woman and I hate when others think of this as a way to overcompensate for what I don't have (my ability to walk). I am not a beauty queen, but I am confortable in my own skin. It is nothing wrong with finding a disabled woman atractive. However, that is different than finding the disability atractive and not the woman.

Susan that's a good point, sue... i think some do celebrate it, but may shy away from actually posting pics here reminds me of the time when m posted the pic of the statue of a dis pregnant woman, and some people thought it was a little strange when he said that the statue turned him on, but i thought it was great! he is very open-minded, as am i, and we both celebrate all kinds of unconventional beauty _________________________

Susan No, I'm just offended when it's in my face and not hidden on this web site. (the nekkid pics I mean) I have no desire to compare myself to nekkid teen nymphs. I'm secure enough to realize media is youth driven and sex sells. If the pic is of a disbled women it wouldn't matter either. I thought the Italian calender of the nude women in chairs was outstanding. I like the Colours ad with the preg. quad on the cover of NM one year as well.[/qb][/QUOTE]

MerryA MerryA Member Registered: 01/10/04 Posts: 10887 Loc: Tennessee	Disabled or not, I could not compete with these airbrushed naked women. I don't know any woman that can. I have no problem with nudity or the pics. They are a fantasy, like a comic book. It is rare (maybe impossible) for any woman to look like these touch-ups in real life - I know it and I think most of the men here know it. I have never met a man that can meet my idealized version of the male physique either. Men are visual creatures. I don't mind my husband looking at nudes or even going to strip shows -- he comes home to me - his less than "perfect" woman and I am the one he makes love to. _________________________ "I was curious.

walkin and rollin walkin and rollin Member Registered: 09/27/04 Posts: 417	Even those perfect bodies are insecure. Rollin's sister is a model (she's in the dept store ads in the Sunday paper) and she worries about her butt and her boobs and the younger tighter bodies out there. She's nineteen. A couple years ago, I squoze my behind into a pair of size 4 jeans. They were a size too small but I got the zipper up. My thighs were still too big to me. I had a size 4 waist but a size 6 butt :rolleyes: My body will never be the ideal feminine figure and I'm AB. I'm not threatened by perfect little tightbodies. Those bodies are gonna go soft before my mind does . Jealous- you betcha. Threatened- no. Guys like to look. They aren't saying they hate disabled womens' bodies, they just want their fantasies. On the other hand, Rollin's brother may get drafted into the NFL this weekend. He looks kinda like Brendan Fraser with a tight butt. I'll look for a pic of him and post it if I can. This is the younger brother rollin used to beat up when they were kids- now he's looking at a pro football career, and rollin gets to hope the stadium will be accessible. walkin

Peaches Peaches Member Registered: 06/14/03 Posts: 2617 Loc: In a peaceful, easy feeling...	Hi Susan,...my initial simple musing on this interesting topic: little boys with their unattainable little toys... :rolleyes: When men post pictures of what a real woman's body does not looks like, I tend to think they are little boys looking at Playboy. Or grown men trying to be one of the "good old boys". As if a quad had a snowballs' chance in hell to... Men are sexually more visually oriented. Perhaps their postings should be offensive to me, especially since they are also disable, but they just aren't. Perhaps their self-image is low. Then again, these men aren't close to me so I could really give a rat's ass what they post it is nothing wrong with finding a disabled woman attractive. However, that is different than finding the disability attractive and not the woman Peace, peaches _________________________ "Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet." Bob Dylan

Wheelchair_diva Wheelchair_diva Member Registered: 01/10/06 Posts: 166 Loc: NJ	I wonder if these women are relly disabled or just models posing in wheelchairs. I know that when someone spend a lot of time in a wheelchair you body tend to change and these women are either recently injured or just faking it.

Where is the atrophy? Where is the flab? Where are the scars? TABs just posing in chairs. :rolleyes: _________________________ "I was curious.

harley-lynn harley-lynn Member Registered: 09/06/05 Posts: 321 Loc: Cleveland, OHIO	I don't like when the guys post these so-called, "pefect/beautiful" women...Do these women really exist?...is it airbrushed?...Do these guys expect to meet a women like that and married her?...or whatever?...Gee-whiz...that leaves me out of the running just because I don't look like the "perfect/beautiful" women!...doesn't personally account for anything anymore?... :p _________________________ Seize every second of your life and savor it...

Paul I Paul I Member Registered: 02/24/00 Posts: 7913	Hey, I look at photos of Aston Martins, Malibu beach houses and the photos posted here occasionally and they're all the same. They are not reality, they are not really reasonable things to consider but what the hey, it's all part of our world. No big deal. _________________________ "...only the shadow knows"

Well I once opened a topic and a nekkid woman appeared whilst at the library wee-feeing. It's against the law to have nekkid people on the comp. in a public place. I learned my lesson to only come here while at my home when the kids are not about.
