Every narcissist I have met thought they had a right to ridicule the
disabled. The disabled in wheelchairs are treated either with pity or
dismissively ignored. But what about the mentally disabled? They are treated
with ridicule and outright contempt, such as name-calling e.g. weirdo see me to
be a favourite insult. Why? I am clean,polite and carING. I deserve respect
until I commit a crime. What I don’t deserve is thuggish thickies thinking I am
an easy target because I am a woman living alone. A disabled man is poked fun
of, but a disabled woman gets a double whammy of my Mickey taking and scorn. Is
it because autistic women are single and childless? It is o.k for a disabled
man to be a loner, but a loner female is an aberration and a selfish one at
that. I am unmaternal because autism is in the family, and there is no way I
would bring a disabled child into such an ignorant world, where the less abled
are regularly targeted by bigots. I know the punishment we get for our
eccentricity, our assumed stupidity, and our assumed aloofness. If you are a
standoffish woman you are a deviant to rival a witch. I will get my broomstick
out. Seriously,I don’t want pity, derision nor hostility. I only ask for equality
in a society where too many prejudge.
