#Ableist bullies/rude jerks are why I don't wear dresses out in public much. I will wear what I want, when I have enough spoons to deal with public bullies. It always happens because I'm visibly disabled & even more so, when I wear anything that shows my dual long leg braces. I didn't go to public beaches for 30 years because people would point out all my surgical scars & question me about my atrophied legs & other super disrespectful crap. I couldn't deal with that - constantly.

I tried going to public beaches to relax. Not to be targeted as abnormal & be treated awfully. I only go to secluded spots now.

One thing I got a lot of, from ignorant public who have said outright rude & blatant #ableist shit like some of the below, for decades ๐Ÿ‘‡

- You're too pretty to be disabled. *mega WTAF*
- You move like you're not disabled at all. *๐Ÿ–•*
- You're not like other disabled people. *We're not a monolith*
- How much of your body is paralyzed? *Only misogynistic men have asked this before getting to know me*
- I can help you our with everything! *When I'm capable of taking care of things & will only ask for external help when truly needed.
- This is more of an ableist action more than words -> when they try doing things to help me that I never asked for, doesn't really help me & they get angry when I ask them to please ask me, before trying to help me because sometimes help from people who don't communicate well with me - ends up costing me more time/energy to deal with/resolve/diffuse.

I want & need help sometimes. Please don't think you know how better you can help me - when you've not invested any genuine time to try to know me better, first.

I actually want to do a secretly filmed #SocialExperiment offline to show folks how differently I'm treated when hiding my visible physical disabilities & how I'm treated when public can see the metal cages/leg braces that I have to wear on daily basis. I know from my own life/personal experiences that I was treated VERY differently - depending on if people could see my leg braces or not.
