Review: Criptionary - my new bible - Have you ever met a person with a disability, and wondered how to overcome the awkward feelings you are hiding? This book gives such insight into terms we all use daily, but that might be more significant to a "Crip" (person with a disability). Maria R. Palacios has opened that world up for us to peek in, have a laugh with, and learn to be ourselves with the disabled. They expect no more from us. If only we all would be that way.....
Review: Wait; am I allowed to laugh at this? - As an author working on books that explore the full life of a gay paraplegic, Maria Palacios' whimsical dictionary of "crip" terminology provides an uplifting take on an often hateful term. As gay activists and scholars have reclaimed the derogatory term "queer" to become an empowering word, Palacios' 'Criptionary' offers a profusion of new words that will baffle, amuse and possibly startle able-bodied readers like myself. I often caught myself stifling giggles while reading the Kindle edition on my phone. But after sharing a few pages with wheelchair-using friends, they assured me that I was right. Humor is just one more way to combat ignorance and discrimination. Don't be a 'crip-hole.' Cook up some 'cripjoles' and enjoy this latest edition of the 'criplegacy.'
