Do you remember this scene from the movie Austin Powers?

Cartoon character in a Superman outfit in a wheelchair girl in bed talking to him.Quartermaster Clerk: [returns Austin's personal effects after the reanimation process] One Swedish-made penis enlarger pump.
Austin: That's not mine.
Clerk: One credit card receipt for Swedish-made penis enlarger, signed by Austin Powers.
Austin: I'm telling ya baby, that's not mine!
Clerk: One warranty card for Swedish-made penis enlarger pump, filled out by Austin Powers.
Austin: I don't even know what this is! This sort of thing ain't my bag, baby!
Clerk: One book, "Swedish-Made Penis Enlarger Pumps and Me: (This Sort of Thing Is My Bag, Baby)", by Austin Powers.
Austin: Ah.
Clerk: Just sign the form.
Austin: Okay, thank you, handy man. I'll sign here, just to get things moving. [laughs] You know.

It was a very funny scene, with a grain of truth in it for men with disabilities.  We often, do not want to talk about our "little problems" or big issues.  We want to sweep them under the rug and hope that nobody ever ask.  The reality is, we don't want to talk about our penis.  Especially, if it does not work as it should, due to our disability.  It is easier, sometimes, not to think of it at all.  
In short, we fear the penis.

The twelve days of Christmas have long gone and the joyous welcoming of a new year has quickly passed along with any ideas that you had of actually making resolutions and sticking to them.


We’re now in February. Yes, the month that we’re knee deep in snow and freezing temperatures. We go about our days hoping the groundhog sees his shadow and suddenly it hits you…

It’s coming! Flowers, cards, and candy, oh my.

Where did I leave my vibrator? Well as it happened, my vibrator was eventually found, but I will get to that later. First, let me give you the back-story. My girlfriend (we will call her Becky) and I had always liked traveling. We would travel any chance we got. It was so great to get away from the dull drum of every day existence. To go someplace where no one knows your name, or cares. You are just a visitor or tourist, there to have fun. My disability would often get lost in the dancing, sun, drinks and my favorite, sex. This was and continues to be an escape, a place to simply be a sexual gimp with a hard-on for life.

Miami- A service monkey named JoJo attacked his quadriplegic handler Estevan Fuentes, after Mr. Fuentes ordered the brown and black Capuchin monkey to wear custom made French Maids outfit. "JoJo has never acted out like this before, exclaimend Fuentes." "He has over two hundred outfits, everything from, a white and blue sailors suit to a mini Kung-Fu outfit."

Fuentes said, that his monkey loved getting dressed-up to stroll up and down Ocean Drive in South Beach; "you know a few times we even wore matching outfits". "I remember the day we both wore the black suit that Al Pacino wore in Scareface." As he ponders the good-old-days, his multiple mini face and ear bandages begin to loosen from his teary face.

Love in the Age of Disability: Dating Advice for Men With Disabilities
By Martin Jauregui, Freelance Writer

A man walks into a bar – actually, he can't walk into the bar because he's in a wheelchair. Instead, the bouncer at the door helps him in through the back entrance because the entrance in the front doesn't meet current ADA accessibility standards. Once he's in, he makes his way over to the bar to order a drink for his date but it takes the bartender a while to take his order because the bar obstructed his view of the wheelchair-bound man.
