What Floats My Devo Boat?

I just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who's visited my blog and my website so far. The feedback has been very encouraging and I'm pleased to read that others have been inspired by my small efforts.

Another very popular question I hear is "What is it about a guy in a wheelchair that you find attractive?"

Many female devotees, and probably many of the males as well have a very hard time answering this one. I think it's because for most of us this attraction was born before we even had the vocabulary to express how we were feeling. I can personally remember having a physical reaction to people I'd see or think about and not having the words to describe the feelings "down there".

I had a very interesting and amusing conversation on one of the message lists I belong to about how we expressed our attraction as children. It seems most of us did a fair amount of Barbie manipulation ... the poor doll became amazingly accident prone in the hands of young devs!

I don't think I'll ever really know what "did it" for me when I was a child but I have been giving the matter some thought now that I'm an adult. When I see a man who is an amputee or paraplegic I am attracted to the visual appeal of the person first. I find the sight aesthetically pleasing. Of course after that we need to have things in common... but I covered that in the previous "impossibly high standards" post.

I suspect what most folks really mean when they ask the question in the first place is "What is arousing about a guy in a wheelchair?" Well I'm certainly not going to get into an elaborate description of all my sexual fantasies here on this very public blog but I will say this. Often when a person has a spinal cord injury or leg amputation(s), it causes some changes in the ways they experience arousal. I find those differences very exciting.
