Ability and disability

It's probably not cool to admit I have a hereditary disability that affects my gait and balance. But in the last two years it has progressed where I use a cane and a rollator--walker with wheels. I use an elliptical, walk around the neighborhood, do chair yoga and eat a healthy diet. And care for ailing spouse. She's always known of my sexual fluidity. We are a loving couple, though our views and activities about sex are no longer the same.

Why mention this? Because I am not two-dimensional, but a whole person with loving family ( and grands), rich in diversity, vitality and acceptance of the vast variety of people. Yes, I have a philosophical bend of mind, progressive, curious and sexy. My disability does not eliminate my abilities.

Perhaps you have some kind of disability--maybe it's still invisible to everyone but not to you. Emotional? Mental? Physical? Loneliness? I'm glad to be part of the FriendFinder-x "community". We are able to recognize our sexual, relational needs--to be satisfied with others AND to satisfy others. Some of us may be exclusive but I suspect most of us are not. We are still able to connect, to be friendly. We are probably selective in what we do, but not necessarily in what we want to do.

Years ago I liked a saying: "Don't get so hung up on your hang up that you can't do your thing!" Yeah, well, disabilities can hang us up. But we still have abilities to use, to explore, to share, to be adult friends for each other. Yay us!
