Hi All,
As many people here know, I have a visible disability. I have dealt with disclosing this in various ways in internet dating. I have two questions: if you have a disability or some other quirkiness that is obvious how do you deal with disclosing it? I am trying to think of something comparable, maybe you have extremely long hair or many tattoos? Race also comes to mind...
Second question: if someone told you they had a disability would this be an automatic turn-off or would you ask questions? This is a pretty harsh question: but I am curious. I think the fact that guys vanish has more to do with the concept of disability, not so much ME, because they haven't met me! Do you think the age of the person factors in? (generational beliefs)?
