There are an entire community of people who want to be disabled. They call themselves transabled. Psychiatrists diagnose them with something called body integrity disorder. You'll notice that sounds like what transexuals used to be diagnosed with, gender identity disorder. "Transabled" is playing off the success of transexuals in getting acceptance. Here's an article about people cutting off their own limbs and gouging out their ears to become disabled.
Just recently this woman paid a psychologist to blind her, claiming by becoming blind she would "fulfill her lifelong wish". She had spent much of her life pretending to be blind. I don't agree with this sort of thing. I personally think the psychologist should go prison for physically abusing a mentally ill patient, and the woman needs psychiatric care.
But there's a problem. Most of us aren't bothered by the existence of transexuals. Why does the existence of people of transabled people seem so wrong? Will the humans of the future look back on us as intolerant brutes for not accepting the transabled?
