No why should I?

I actually like to be a decent person to everyone I meet that does not wrong me in some way..the other day I bummed a ciggerette to a dude who looked like he could have been homeless and seemed to have some severe mental issue like schizophrenia and yeah I talked to him for a while I did not just give him a ciggerette and make up an excuse to leave because he was 'weird.'

I will admit I sometimes feel uncomfortable around people with phyical disabilities....nothing against them I am always just afraid they will think I am staring at them or something..its my nature to stare at nothing particular in a certain direction so yeah.

Then I would open a barbershop catering to people with disabilities or else become a traveling barber.

Personally, when I am around "perfect" plastic people, I feel really icky inside. Like I definitely don't belong, like someone is about to find me out.

So I tend to be drawn to weird people, people with emotional issues, people who are "lame" in some way, because essentially I am lame in some way.

So yeah. It does depend on what we are classifying as a disability, whether we are using the term loosely or clinically.

Each condition is different and each person with a condition is different as well. So the combination of a disability plus a personality sometimes does make me feel uncomfortable or even scared at times.

But it's still better than the plastic people. They scare me a bit more, though in a different way.
