Alright, this reply might get a bit long, but I'm hoping to cover everything you've touched on in your thread and its replies.

Regarding the interaction between disability and Feminism, I've actually had that conversation a couple of times with a mate of mine who has cerebral palsy. Our conclusions are that there are versions of Feminist thought which indirectly devalue people (males particularly) with disability. Basically it comes about through a line of argument that considers men (or women) who are not independent as inferior and men who are reliant on women as immoral/detestable (ditto the women that choose or allow themselves to be "exploited" - I'm being deliberately provocative here). The indirect implication of course is that people with disability who may need some support (the rolling of dice in a game of Monopoly, to continue the example) are detestable/immoral (and again, ditto women who support them/assist their independence etc).

Now, this is really important, first up: Feminists are not one faceless group of individuals. Feminism is a nuanced school of thought and it is important to ascribing actions and positions of someone who proclaims themselves a Feminist to all who proclaim themselves Feminists. Secondly, I suspect if you pushed the Feminist who did appear to hold the views I've outlined above, they would either strengthen their argument to remove the indirect consequence or concede the point that it is a logical weakness. That's my take on it all at least, I'm not up with Feminist thought and have never taken to theories born out of Marxism (the idea we can interpret the world through class struggle). That's not to say I haven't read them, I'm just a blend of classical liberal and realist in the school of political economy. (For the record, I've a Bach. International Studies, Honours (First Class) in International Relations).

As for my take on the wider topic. I've never had a girl turn me down because I'm blind. Nor have any of the girlfriends I've had, love interests or friends in general write me off or stay away because I'm blind. In fact none of them have even thought much about it and often people forget I'm blind. The reason for this is largely because I'm legally blind and can still do a lot with the vision I still have (central in my left eye). But I do ask people to read menus for me (and have done for a while now) and sometimes other things (e.g. letters), help telling colours apart, guidance at night or in low light, and of course transportation.

I am currently single though, and have been for a while now (~9mths). Finding girlfriends is Hard and I really regret neglecting social interaction with the majority of those I went to uni with in favour of alcohol and World of Warcraft (and later Company of Heroes. Can't play either of them now, so woops, poor life choices). Now I'm working and I don't have those opportunities to meet people that schooling or casual/non-career work provides. Does that make me a sad panda? Yep. Do I let that stop me? Nope. Because if you don't try, you won't ever achieve.

To me the secret is really ignoring your sight. You just do what you do to get done what you need to get done. If you start fixating on your sight being rubbish, then you'll come undone because suddenly you'll start taking the view of "woe is me" and no one wants to be around that. That's not to say I'm a very dark, sarcastic, self-deprecating cynic, I am. But I know if I go "well, I -could- go to such and such, but it is dark and I'm unfamiliar with the locality" I'm never going to get anywhere.
