@everett.pethig: *Edit: I did not expect this post to blow up like it did and the ableism, transphobia and just overall lack of empathy is shocking. Because of this I have a few points to cover. - Firstly I am a full time wheelchair user because I have lower limb paralysis from just below the hips downwards due to a disability that has progressed. - I get leg spasms in my muscles which I can’t control meaning my legs twitch sometimes. Because of this my legs haven’t atrophied very much. I’m also a bigger person so just I have big legs in general. - No I do not have to proove my disability to anyone. My medical care team is well aware of my conditions and no I am not self diagnosed. - Yes I used to be able to walk so finding a video that I’ve posted of me walking from 4 years ago is not the proof you think it is and is honestly hilarious. - Yes I am trans and queer. Miss gendering me does not get the rise out of me that you want it to sorry not sorry. - I dress however I want and it has nothing to do with me being in a chair. - I decorate my chair because it makes it easier for me to process that I am 21 years old and realiant on it. - The second video clip is in slow motion (I thought that was obvious but apparently not) - In the second clip I am pushed all the way forward on my chair and have my feet placed in the floor. I then used my core to fling myself to the floor. Was this a smart idea… no (dw I’m fine) To those who have left lovely comments, found this video funny and/or fought the bigotry in the comments I thank you☺️ ⚠️Do not attempt this if you know you will fall. I’m a professional idiot so it’s fine.⚠️ But in all seriousness this is such a dumb thing to say. You can become disabled at literally any age. VD: Everett is a 21 year old white trans masculine person with short blue hair and glasses. They are in their bedroom. He is wearing a very pink outfit and is sitting in his manual wheelchair until he tries to stand by pushing himself out of their wheelchair. He ends up falling right to the floor in slow motion. End of VD. Hashtags: #disabled #chronicallyill #wheelchairuser #paralysis #fyp

So guys have you ever thought about how being paralyzed in your entire lower body is not the only reason to have a wheelchair right now

I think people need to stop teaching their kids that wheelchairs are solely for people who’s legs don’t work or don’t have legs

My mom has Parkinson’s and CAN walk, but sometimes uses a wheelchair when her legs are weak or she is shaking a lot, to prevent her falling. People acting like you have to be completely paralyzed to use a wheelchair. 🙄

All the people in these comments think wheelchairs are only for double amputees or something. You can use wheelchairs if you just can’t stand or walk for a prolonged time
