rights activists use an acronym, TAB, humorously to point this out: TAB stands for temporarily able-bodied as a reminder that many become disabled as they join welded the ranks of the elderly
ations are often used interchangeably, proponents of the social model of
disability
welded use the latter term to describe the social and economic consequences of the former; i.e., an individual with a
disability
is said to be handicapped by the bias of society towards ability (e.g., welded a building without an elevator handicaps a person who uses a wheelchair)
Similarly, in the United Kingdom, people within the
disability
rights movement commonly use the term disabled to denote someone welded who is disabled by society's inability to accommodate all of its inhabitants.Many people with disabilities especially dislike disabled person or the disabled, as this implies that one's overall personness is defective, while person welded with a
disability
acknowledges the
disability
without implying anything about the overall person
However, according to the social model, as it is society that disables a person, the reality of being a welded person with a
disability
is not really possible because it is impossible for an individual to have a society, therefore the term disabled person does not signify the lack of one's own person-ness welded but points an accusing finger at society for excluding those with impairments
