I also use a wheelchair and am a woman. Both of my legs were amputated six years ago. My amputations are obviously the reason for me being in a chair, rather than for health reasons or paralysis. Men have been kind to me since I lost my legs and have even flirted with me, but they never ask me out on anything more than a buddy-type date. I am attractive and used to be considered sexy and dated often, though I was not in a relationship when I lost my legs. I look the same as before, and my personality is the same. The only difference is I now have no legs and use a wheelchair. Since then I have not had a man seriously consider me as a lover. My entire body functions; I am quite capabale of having sex and moving my body. I think being in a chair automatically causes people to think of me as handicapped more than as a woman. I used to hear myself referred to as a beautiful woman or as a babe, but now I hear ‘that handicapped/crippled/amputee woman in a wheelchair’. Once people have to look down to see your face at their stomach level, you become less to them. Maybe men think people will wonder why they are with a woman who is damaged. All that said, I do know of women and men who are happily married and found love after becoming disabled. So I know there is hope for us. Maybe having this body now weeds out the men we really wouldn’t want me, anyway. If we do find a lover, we will know they don’t mind that we have less than perfect bodies. Good luck – to us.
