So we call it man-splaining when men explain concepts that women already understand and perhaps are experts in to women. What do we call it when able-bodied people do the same thing to disabled folks? Recently, I was in an event where I was the only amputee and I had two people come up to me. They wanted to talk about my prosthetic, okay, cool. Two words in. One of the people genuinely took over the entire conversation, explaining my life experience to the person sitting next to me. This person was not speaking from experience or understanding. They did have a friend once who lost a toe, so maybe they are more of an expert than I am. Genuinely funny to me and I just sat there because I was just trying to understand what the proper term for this would be. The best part was that he then started explaining my life experience and my disability and my overcoming of it to me. Not asking questions. What is- what is that? What should we call it? Should we call in a new term? Let me know in the comments section.
