Re: [QUAD-L] Men and Women Quaids

AB's come with garbage just as much as a quad does.  Disability comes in many forms.  just because a guy can crap on his own doesn't make him better than anyone else.   point is;  Never settle.  You are worthy of being loved by someone and loving someone in return. ----- Original Message ----- From: A.B.C.

Can I ask you one more quistion. Is it more easyer to have a AB man? Wheelchair Warrior  Liz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I'm sorry I'm not quite sure what you are asking?   Body image? Why there are more AB women with quad guys?  (statistically as there are more male SCI than women?) Why a quad man would not date a quad women? Are you including paras?     Many of the quad women I know are involved with AB men (including myself).   There's an article in the new newmobility magazine @ women with disabilities and body image.  I haven't received my copy yet but the cover pic is on their website www.newmobility.com ----- Original Message ----- From: andrea murray To: quad-list@eskimo.com Sent: Saturday, November 05, 2005 2:47 PM Subject: [QUAD-L] Men and Women Quaids I have been wondering why Quid men do not see Quid woman the same way as they see a non disabled woman. In a sexual way or as a mate. I"m doing a research and don't hold back. I also want the women view too. How do you abaut yourselfs? Wheelchair Warrior Yahoo!
