This guy shows that there are many out there that won't get girlfriends. Woman won't give him a chance because of his disability. It's fucking sad and it really pisses me off. I admit I'm a bit bias because I work this this populations. Tons of guys that will never get laid (or even kissed) because of their disabilities, while other guys out there get sex 3 or 4 times per day. It times like this that I have to wonder why the world is so unfair.
Hmmm..... this seems to be bordering on misogyny here, I think.
Some things to consider:
- Looking at the picture, the guy hardly seems to be conventionally attractive, with or without his illness. Isn't it possible that he'd been passed over in his short span of eligible bachelor years simply because he wasn't so hot? Do ugly GIRL virgins inspire you to shake your fist at an unfair world, too, or do you just think "Well, no WONDER she's a virgin!"
- How often have you had sex with an unattractive female virgin with a serious disability, let alone a terminal illness? Even putting aside the attraction and virginity elements that can make a sexual relationship challenging, the whole terminal illness thing would surely make it even more difficult to deal with, for EITHER person.
- Maybe some girls/women DID give him a chance, and he turned out to be an obnoxious asshole. Just because someone's scheduled to die in the near future that doesn't automatically make them a charming, fascinating person who could easily spark a romance.
- Perhaps the pic in the article is old, but even though he's 22, he looks about 16, maybe 17 in that pic. A LOT of people that age are virgins, and I suspect that 22-year-olds who look a good bit younger also have a harder time than they'd like to get laid. Add in that he's most likely in a wheel-chair and he has limited mobility (muscular dystrophy), well, hello unfortunate reality.
- He said "There are many aspects of life that an able-bodied person takes for granted but from which I am excluded.... I had hoped to form a relationship when I went to university, but it didn't happen."
I've never taken sex for granted. I'm not entitled to it or something. If a hot girl that I was into didn't do me I didn't hold it against her. Nobody's obligated to fuck me for any reason... I've been fortunate enough that I rarely had to go very long without it in my adult years, but I suppose that if I acted like a complete jerk, I might have had less sex. Who knows? And why didn't he form a relationship while at university?? The devil is in the details.
I've also known a few other people without disabilities, who made it through college without getting laid. They were either very studious, unattractive, only interested in love-of-a-lifetime true romances leading to marriage, or a combination of these.
