Would you buy this politically incorrect book or be offended by it?

Asked by SuperMouse (30845points) October 11th, 2010

I am taking a book arts class in the spring and my boyfriend and I have come up with a rather unconventional subject to write about. We are contemplating creating a book called I’m Crippled You Know…. Each page would have some obstacle or issue that disabled folks face such as “hey you took my parking spot! I’m crippled you know.” or “How about shoveling that sidewalk? I’m crippled you know.” We are planning on doing it in a very tongue in cheek way but hopefully making a point. The title alone is pretty politically incorrect, but it is all about making a point about the fact that wheelchair users and others with physical disabilities are pretty much just people who happen to be disabled. What do you think? Would it offend you? Would it make you uncomfortable? Disclaimer: my boyfriend/collaborator is disabled.
