I can see that actually. i'd have no problem with a girl using blindness against me in a femdom scene. It'd be hot haha.

Awesome thread. I'll list a few of my less...weird ones. Long hair, biting, and some aspects of force/submission, either as a dom or sub. I don't go in for the serious BDSM stuf but a bit of roleplay based around consent is awesome, and since I am a switch, she can get her revenge later Me

Hi all,
So, going on the theory that this is a bit of a specialist site, I'm wondering if anyone around has any other kinks, aside from being a dev. For the PWDs, do you find that those who are disabled are more likely to have extra or unusual sexual kinks, than those who are AB? That has been my experience as a blind person...blind people are kinky as hell for some reason.
So, do tell?

Lol, so many reactions! Everything from "they let you out of the house then?" to "Oh my God, I'm so inspired!" It just blows peoples' socks off for some reason that I'm a blind guy who leaves the house, has a job and actually...does stuff.

I use the tapping of the cain or any other sound that happens to be near by.

yeah I also listened to that ep. I love This American Life. But echolocation to that standard is rare. I do use it on occasion to hear openings, polls and parked vehicles ETC. But I refuse to click. Its a bit too...odd for me.

sorry about late responses all. PretzelTwist I'm not actually certain. I know that the autism rate is slightly higher for VIs for some reason, likely related to why they were blind. We do have less of a sense of balance, especially if born, as we can't focus on stationary objects to keep ETC. But this kind of thing is only evident when on busses or trains ETC where balance is more difficult than usual.

Nova best question so far. What sucks the most I think, is choosing your career with disability as a consideration. I wanted to do music, but I've seen too many VIs fail at that since they can't drive, can't easily get from gig to gig without serious help from bandmates, can't control their own destiny enough to just go grab the acoustic guitar and go busking in random towns and cities they've never heard of before, not without a support system of some kind. And it doesn't matter how good I happen to be at the craft of musicianship, that path for me, will be complicated due to disability, and that's kind of shite. The best thing? I'm honestly not sure. This may sound slightly unusual perhaps, but if I had to find an overarching positive, it would be that I have to be tough. I have to be slightly better than the other candidates, or I may not get a job. I have to think slightly more about my day-to-day activities, or they won't happen. Just going to a new city or town brings with it a hoast of challenges which, if you want to live and experience, you have to handle. So I've cultivated a "just fucking get it done" attitude which helps me do that...and I'm a better person for it. I hope that made sense! Me

ok @maur1ne and others re echolocation I have never been trained in it. Frankly, going down the street clicking is only acceptable if you happen to be speaking xhosa...I think it makes one look a bit too weird for me. But I do use it passively via the sound reflections made by a cain when tapping. It also tells me where doorways are on either side by sound having a lot more space to bounce into, as against the concrete of the doorframe. I can also use it when crossing the street to avoid parked cars, as sound tends to just...stop because they're such big objects. So its not uncommon for me to cross a street and slightly change direction midway, to hit the pavement instead of slamming into a parked vehicle. Also, let me reserve a special circle in hell for you sighted people who park your cars on the pavement/sidewalk...blind people do not like you!
Hope I've not missed any questions here. Me

pumafreak I'm afraid orgasm takes centre stage for me...seeing would just be a bonus. @looknohands You raise an interesting question. I can say that I do have kinks both physical and psychological and that in my limited experience, blind guys especially, are slightly more kinky on average. I'm actually considering helping a friend who is doing her undergrad in psychology study the relationship between non-normative sexual interests and disability to see if coralations exist...we shall see! As for my own personal kinks...best get to know me for those . Me

Oh my God so many questions! Guys, if I don’t get to answer everything in this one post, I promise I will soon lol but I shall try. Also keep in mind a lot of these are extremely subjective and so if you ask two other blind guys these same things, they may answer in a completely different way. @sir Paul I love colognes and a good perfume is amazing if you don’t get a mouthful of it when moving downwards, if you know what I mean… queenjane and @tc123 I know a few blind people who do still have quite visual memories. They have a mental map of where they’re going, they picture a room in terms of where things are, ETC. I personally am not visual at all, but I would never claim that other blindies are not. I am very word-oriented because I’m a linguist. But in many ways my mind has been trained that way. I remember things using mnemonics or other memory tricks. I do know friends who remember phone numbers and other things by their braille equivalents, which is quite visual I believe. I remember numbers in terms of how I would type them in on a keypad i.e. what motions my hands would actually make. But I have a lot of random tricks like that. Vis have to use their memories just a bit more than sighted people, on average, so we develop these things. The plus side to this is I can usually tell you where most of the things in my kitchen are without looking…although I know bakers and blind cooks who have a lot more shit than I do and they struggle a bit lol. As a corollary to that, since I know there are a few chefs on this site, if there are lots of ingredients which look/feel the same, most blind cooks will label the containers using tiny braille strips. I’m not quite so advanced I just open them! Regarding dreams, well yes, they are tactile, or conversational, or whatever the dream happens to be. Just as we experience life, so too do we experience dreams. james that is actually something parents have to be a little bit more instructive about, believe it or not. But of course thoroughness in that area is instinctive to us now. MetsI’m really glad you mentioned this one. They rarely startle us…even if you think your chair is quiet…it aint! Haha Ok, seriously though, no, in general being greeted does not startle us unless we’re deep in thought about something, just like anyone else would. But if someone whom we don’t know overly well says “hi!” we may not have a clue who it is, or even if they’re talking to us, or someone walking behind or near to us. We sometimes ignore people who say hi just in case they might be talking to someone else and we want to avoid being really embarrassed…we call those “blind moments” lol. Otherwise, if we don’t know you well we may not actually be sure who it is. The first you times, best advice is just say “hi (name) it’s (your name).” It won’t take more than twice, trust me. lemons that answer is really quite complicated. Screen readers and their users choose what they want to know and what they want to filter. Pop-ups are often filtered for example or we would use blockers to get around them. We have a lot of tricks and if you’ve not tried to use a screen-access package yourself it’s very difficult to describe how it all works. Maybe this will help a bit…I hope this video link works: PretzelTwist you are awesome aren’t you: D. @inkdevil to be honest, we’re just quite careful, or at least I am! Although, and this may restore your faith in humanity somewhat, it is very rare indeed that we have a problem with readers or other assistants, it does happen because people are people, but it is not common. Just like anyone else, you can tell a lot from someone by how they speak, how they talk about themselves and others…the standard things. And just like anyone else, if you don’t want it looked at by someone, lock it up.
