Are there other disabilities like mine that are okay to make fun of?


It's not a terrible disability, but it does make my life a little harder sometimes. It's very rare that any public works project or manufacturer take people like me into consideration at all when designing things. When you find out what it is, I bet you'll think I'm just a whiner. But think about this: how often are things color-coded? Ever park on the blue level of a parking garage? Press the red button to stop, green to start? Things like that don't make my life easy. When people find out I'm colorblind, they even 'test' my colorblindness by asking me what color things are. If you have ever done that, don't you see that it would be like saying to a guy in a wheelchair "okay, see if you can tippy toe...No? Really? Okay, now see if you can go up these stairs" just for your entertainment.

No, you're not a whiner. Although I really never did think of colorblindness as a disability before now. Especially with the amount of things that are color coded. It's a good thing that traffic lights have to be in a certain order!

My brother is colorblind (it's the blue/green type--he can't tell the difference between carrot sticks and celery sticks if he's looking at them) and he's never considered himself disabled, although I guess technically, he is. When I have a son, he'll probably have it, too, because it's X-linked. I'm more than likely a carrier, like my mother.

Most people probably don't realize they're being insensitive when they "test" your condition. They're probably just curious, although that's no real excuse. I can see the parallel of asking a guy in a wheelchair to do something he can't just for amusement. Not cool.

I've got to admit, though...I've kind of been guilty of that myself, when it comes to my brother. I only did it when I first found out. And it's only because I wanted to understand. Always the clever one, my brother transferred an image of a colorblindness test to a paint program and had someone point out the colored dots. He then changed them to look just like the background. He said, "There. Now everyone looking at this knows how I see it." And he sent it to everyone he knows:) Not only did people quit bugging him about it, but everyone learned something. It was a win-win situation.

Meridian News - Wheelchair sk8ing


Do you like to mock people because of their conditions?


Do you laugh at cancer patients? Invite people in wheelchairs to play soccer? Make generalizations about people based on their skin color?

Why is it OK to mock people with developmental disabilities? Join me in educating the WSIDR about people first language. Just cut and paste this link as your answer to his questions. Or google "people first" or "person centered planning" for yourself. I enjoy his questions - but not at the expense of others. Being Mentally retarded does not cancel out an individuals humanity.

http://www.disabilityisnatural.com/peoplefirstlanguage.htm

I'm for persuading WSIDR to alter his approach. But if it is done in a confrontational or just a cut and paste manner, all he has to do is block the "people first" posters.

I wonder what other ways this could be accomplished. Is there another "R" word that could be substituted?

Plus, not everyone is as aware how much of a slur retard is. I use it myself, I hate to admit. And you do have to win the community here. So I wonder if your approach would cause some to dismiss you, only emboldening WSIDR's resolve to stay as is?
