Bronwyn’s fateful weekend

by Sean - 12 February 2007

I hope you enjoy this bit of fiction. It is somewhat different than my usual stories, and focuses more on eye impairments than any other story I’ve written to date (pun intended). As usual, please feel free to give me feedback (comment feature is good for that ;) ).

It taints everything it touches

by Sean - 11 February 2007

It pops in my mind out of nowhere, shoving existing thoughts aside and making itself known. How I wish it was different, but it is my reality, day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute, year after bloody year, decades going.

The disability inside

by Claire -

The Paradevo board is for devotees of disabled men. Someone there recently posted a link to a YouTube video of a hot guy in a chair doing transfers. I had seen the video before, the guy in the video had originally posted it to the wheelchairpretenders2 group. I told the female devos there that the guy was a pretender, and there was an ensuing discussion about how that killed the feeling for them, he could be as hot as he wanted, if he was a pretender, then from a devo point of view it did nothing for them. He was fake, he didn’t have a "real body", was a total fraud, not the real deal. One other person said (anonymously) that it didn’t matter, the video was hot anyway. I agreed, but didn’t speak up, having been flamed there before for being a pretender myself.

She said there had been a terrible accident, and that Todd had been shot in the back while hunting, and that he would never walk again.
