That's one difference. The woman I dated, and still, now, see once in a while, although her body is physically a mess, and she's disabled, is a very proud, tough-girl, very independent even though physically dependent often.

She can be a huge flirt, maybe it affirms that she hasn't lost it, but I know some guys would take advantage and hurt her. She really can't defend herself.
For me, she's one of those people who you..Just can't shake. Not that I want to. But I do know her physical condition very well.
That makes me think that it has more to do with a person's unique personality than anything. But personality is something so elusive, ambiguous, fluid, changeable, and hard to measure. It's much easier to pin-point a disability.

That, I suspect, underlines the importance of external factors.
