I've been contemplating on putting my application essay up here for a month or two. After hemming and hawing over it I decided that I finally would. I hope that it's okay for me to do that and that it's not against SG rules. Why do I want to share my essay with all of you lovely people? I want you to know why becoming an SG is so important to me. I think my essay illustrates my reasons really well and if it just so happens to help me find a photographer to shoot my first set, that's a bonus. I hope you enjoy it and I welcome your feedback. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

Why do you want to be a Suicide Girl?
Aside from being a member of the coolest and biggest organization that celebrates weird and geeky girls like myself? I want to be a positive role model for my fellow wheelchair users everywhere. There are no sexy, beautiful, and strong quadriplegic women in the sex industry. Growing up in my teens and twenties I longed to see those kind of women. I was looking for a voice to say, “It’s okay to have sexual desires even if you can’t move.” and “You are desirable and attractive.” I want to be that voice for young men and women everywhere.
I also want to change the way able bodied people see the disabled. One of the most common questions i’m asked is, “Can you have sex?” Since when does being in a wheelchair mean you can’t have sex?! It is a narrow minded ignorant stereotype and it is total bullshit! I have sex more than most of my able bodied friends.
I want to be apart of something amazing, I want to be a piece of history with some other amazingly smart, sexy, and beautiful women. But all of that falls short to giving girls like me that are searching for someone to tell them, "Fuck the status quo! Be raunchy, be funny, be a geek, be a force to be reckoned with, but most importantly, be yourself!", giving them someone to look up to is paramount. .
