This week on HealthCentral, I go on about romance and sex:

“One of my favourite frog stories — as in, “you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find a prince” — was the man who said he didn’t want to date me because he wanted an equal partner. As I’d managed to have a number of equal relationships with family, friends and past lovers despite my disability, I inquired what prevented me from taking on that role. To which he muttered something about wanting a woman who could help paint the house. And that was the moment I realized that someone not being able to “handle” my RA was entirely about them and not me. Quite a liberating moment.”

The rest of the post is here. And the contest will remain open until Sunday.
