And the others are as productive as "whole" people ?
Yep , it depends on what job they do though . While I know 3 stonemasons without legs I have yet to come across one without arms .
Anyhow you "exceptional" example is wrong , he isn't an amputee he has a nerve disease , perhaps Nelson might be an example you could use instead , or for Wigferth and his running worries perhaps Terry Fox .
Now I wonder how fast Fox could have run a marathon with one of the latest sporting prothetics(which are contraversial since they make people run too fast for the events to be fair on those who use the older versions)

But anyway , just for some feedback I sent this story off to a few people .
Responses have been pretty consistant .
Stupid cow mainly as an initial reaction followed by , isn't it just the same sort of mental disorder as those that weigh 6 stone and still think they are fat and if people can get their transgender mental issues dealt with in the health service then why is this mental disorder any different .

One persons views I would be interested in seeing on this would be Proletariats , but she doesn't do the backroom anymore .
