Left to my own devices, I probably would

Speaking of working out, when I was at the gym, which was very quiet on a Friday afternoon, I met this dude. Nice guy. One-armed. We exchanged pleasantries. Seemed straight. A big disappointment for me. You know how I kinda get off on missing parts, right? Is that offensive or insensitive or bigoted or something? Anyway, we ended up walking out together and he jumps into a Hummer. KILLS me that my phone camera didn't capture his vanity plate: ONE LEFT. Carry on, bro. Posted by Picasa

Just so you know, it's not just you... I'm also up for hot boys with missing parts... or just nonfunctional parts (like deaf or blind boys)...

It does sound wrong saying it outloud tho...

I once saw a documentary about amputees and their admirers. It was made by a woman who was an amputee (an Aussie) and she went to the US to attend the big amputee conventions and examine the big subculture. There was a whole cadre of guys who follow the amputee women around, and they are called 'devotees'. There are even Victoria's Secret style medical equipment catalogues, women in lingerie with state of the art crutches etc. Very odd, but in a way cool too because some of the women involved felt empowered by being deired.

That last word was "desired". I don't think "deired" was what they had in mind. Whatever it means.

Well yaniboy, when you put it that way it does. Sound wrong. And then it sounds even more wrong when Andrew starts talking about state of the art crutches and lingerie. I just wanna suck on a finger stump, is that so wrong? Oh, also I'm really tempted by this guy I see at work who has a whole lotta zig-zaggy facial scarring.

Isn't there an amputee sex scene in Huster White, the film that former Mr Madonna, Tony Ward, is in? Maybe it isn't such a niche market after all...

Hey Yaniboy, I'm legally blind in one eye (my right) and have been so since birth. A congentital cataract. And I wear contacts in my left eye, so vision is not perfect there either.

That makes me at least half way to blind, if not a little more, right?

Will that get me very far?

Doin' anything next Saturday night?
