[@leewood729]

Actually, as a former surgical nurse, I was more curious about your hips. I can totally see how the rest of you that people are inordinately curious about, are complete and functional - I wonder about your operation and how much (if any) of the upper leg or socket was kept intact, or if you're literally sitting on your pelvis. Please ignore if this is too personal. You are a genuinely lovely, open person, and I'm sure when kids ask questions, you're - excuse the pun - completely straight with them.

I wondered the same after the algorithm fed me this video and I thought "what a great dude". And then I watched a couple of other vids and the swimming video answered the torso length/ hip questions.

[@justjoanna473]

Yes! I thought it was lower torso too, so that is why I was curious. Thank you so much for clearing the question up for us. Now, I too am wondering if they left upper bone in your legs. You are very brave and we are definitely not meaning any disrespect. I have a lot of respect for you! Thanks again.

[@lethfuil]

As a trans man I had people randomly (and with obvious intent) ask me if I pee standing up. I usually answer that (sorry, English... hope it still makes sense) "No, I grab on to a hook that I've installed above the toilet, with one hand, open my pants with the other and am reeeally careful to hit the target, before I lose my grip." And I'm pretty good at saying that in an almost convincing way. In other words: Yes! Time, place and circumstances are absolutely key for certain questions.

[@LunatheMoonDragon]

[@ThundermansThunder]

I can relate, I feel that way with my back issues, scoliosis being a part of it, though I only have a slight curving, unlike my brother who has the old Harrington rods in his back from the 1980's. I also have ichthyosis vulgaris, a genetic skin disorder that causes very dry skin and bad scaling, so you can imagine what childhood comments I had to endure. I suffer with acute nerve pain from a car accident from over 20 years ago that is so bad I can do very little, let alone work. It is especially hard not being able to do the things with my children and young grandchildren that I had always expected that I would do, and that is the hardest, bitterest pill of all for me. But God is good, and has blessed me in other ways, as I am sure He has you. Life, itself, is such a gift, and is worth living for the joy that we can give and experience with each other! Hope that on this day you very happy and healthy!!!

As someone born with an invisible heart defect and then had open heart surgery, I was never able to articulate my thoughts the way you just did. It was so hard explaining what happened because this surgery wasn’t common back in the 70’s and being a child with a freakishly large scar running down your body scared almost everyone. I just want to thank you for the words you spoke. They’re a gentle guiding light to navigate through the strange questions curious people ask.

[@bearhugzfam649]

OMG YES I genuinely cried a little at your crash course in how to ask someone these questions. I'm autistic enough to be disabled by it and sometimes it's kind of obvious, I might talk to myself in public a bit too loudly, make strange noises (audio stimming) or move in a weird way (kinetic stimming) and I often wear disability lanyards and stuff to identify me as, yk, disabled, not just on meth. And I always welcome questions and I always say "just ask, we prefer the asking to those looks we get when people want to ask but don't know how" and I really really want to normalize "just ask"ing but also yeah it needs to be done in the right way and I appreciate that no everyone knows what the right way is (I didn't know myself until I watched a video similar to yours years ago). Also for people wondering yeah it counts for most sensitive subjects not just disability. If a dude walks up to me and says "hey this is gonna sound weird but can I ask you some questions about your experiences as a woman?" I'll probably say yes. Basically it's about informed consent, specifically giving the person you're talking to the ability to give informed consent for the sensitive conversation you want to have, or not. Like yeah sure kinda weird sometimes but hey if you're polite and I know what I'm getting myself into I'm probably gonna say yes just because you were polite about it, if someone randomly comes up to me and says "oh hey! I do that too! Are you autistic as well?!" it's different. I mean not for me 'cause I'm basically a Labrador in a human costume I'll b e friends with anyone but you know what I mean.

Cause some dont seem to be able to grasps the fact some keep asking very rudely or while we are with family members or friends or a date. Im 57 and yeah, heard and seen some pretty weird stuff.

[@natashabusono4550]

[@jackcherbourg2899]

2 years ago, during Passover, I took my fam to Lancaster County, where we went on an authentic Amish buggy tour. Since it was Passover, most everybody there was Jewish. One fellow asked our buggy driver, "If we were to knock on an Amish family's door and ask to see an authentic Amish home, would they let us in?" I thought (but was not ridiculous enough to say aloud), "If some random stranger knocked on your door asking to see an authentic Jewish home, would you let him in?" Like our vlogger here, I would be fine if someone just came over and asked for something to drink or perhaps a snack and then, while munching away, said that s/he'd always been curious about the dynamics of Jewish families, but don't expect that somebody of a different culture will ever open up their own home as your personal museum tour.

[@ZamFam]

I think the reason this question is asked so often is because of the length of your body (for lack of a better term/description). It looks as if your body ends at mid-torso or just end the bellybutton. That gives the illusion that anything below the bellybutton is missing. Thank you for so willingly and graciously answering this any other questions that come your way. What an inspiration you are to everyone. There is nothing better in a man (with or without legs, eggplant, limes or peach) than a sense of humor.

[@kaitlyncleary3424]

Yess. This is my thought as well. As in I believe he doesn't have any "junk" cause of where his body ends

[@evastickler3298]

I think it’s probably due to atrophy of muscles that would be anchored into lower limbs and added bulk to those for the upper limbs and torso that give the illusion of his body ending mid torso. It’s surprising how many muscles the body uses to move your legs, and how those muscles and those bones they anchor to contribute to body shape.

[@tootmetoota]

Yeah, I wrongly assumed he didn’t have a pelvis. This explains so much.

"I'm not here to be a teaching moment for you every single day every hour of my life." YES!!

[@eora5142]

What people often fail to realize is that if when you see/meet a disabled/different person you go to them and ask about their situation/make a comment about them, that is a few minutes of your life. But if every person the disabled/different person meets does that, can you imagine what their life becomes? How frustrating it is to continually hear the same comments around you or to continually have to answer questions? Some people might have a natural inclination to teaching and sharing, but some others might well not! Don't make someone's life more difficult that it is to satisfy your curiosity, unless you have the impression they might appreciate your interest or you wouldn't be able to find this sort of information anywhere else and you're dying to know and you can think of a nice, tactful, not imposing way to ask! Even though I assure you there's plenty of people on the internet willing to share about their lives to help other people understand. Maybe more willing that the random person you meet just going on with their lives on the street 😉

@Saucy Boy I was waiting for someone to ask lmao Let ya boi explain.. So witches, pagans, and many many many cultures follow tradition in the form of anscestor veneration. (Which honestly ima be straight up every black person should be venerating, thanking, and giving praise to their anscestors. Known AND UNKNOWN. For your anscestors are those in your bloodline that came before you, and without them you wouldn't be here and in other words, They are you. Empowering them, means empowering yourself as well as those on the other side. Hope this was eye opening❤ (Also about the disabled guy being an anscestor, ion think you can be an anscestor and be currently living, you'd have to die to be considered and anscestor, soo descendant, until death.)

@Saucy Boy I was just answering the question bc you seemed like you wanted to know. But so as long as you understand the principal of what I'm taking about, why trip?

That's the part I don't get either. His torso seems too short to hold his lower vital organs and intestines. It seems to end around his belly button, not his hips. From his explanation, he has pelvic bones and his legs are gone at the joints. I'm still confused but so be it. He's quite amazing.

@@lemon1657 That is because he is resting/ sitting on his ribcage which is why the rest of his upper body isn't visible.

I've probably been rude in a form, I went to a haunted house attraction, and I was staring intensely at a guy who was carrying another guy around, the man carrying the one guy around sets him on a table, and the dude looked like the guy in this video. ( These weren't people apart of the haunted house, just visitors like me. ) But I couldn't stop glancing at the guy, I never approached him. But I was dying to ask how it happened.

[@Zvox]

@@ChonkyCats staring is pretty shitty. it would have been far more polite to just walk up and say something like "hey, i'm terribly sorry if i'm bothering you, but i'm really curious about your disability, do you mind talking about it?" rather than just creepily staring from afar. i can't speak for every disabled person, but i can always feel someone staring at me and it doesn't feel good. i'd much prefer talking about it as long as the person approaching me isn't an asshole. but i'm a dirty punk rock weirdo on top of being smol and disabled, so i guess i'm extra unapproachable tbh. which is ironic because i'm pretty gregarious lmao.
