Dsypraxia needs changes, negative stereotypes
#6
i, personally, have a serious case of dyspraxia and associated harassment/difficulties throughout my life. but i don't really see clowns having dyspraxia as a bad thing (though i expected this thread to be made at some point).

if anything, in my experience, people don't even know what dyspraxia is. it's not really a distasteful representation either, as clowns do bog standard dyspraxia things like drop stuff and mess up. the reactions to it, like when i do it irl, are purely positive. Maybe I don't do things to some extremes that the clowns do it sometimes, but it's funny that it's part of the job description that the silly role has to have it.

i dunno. i guess it can be called clumsy? I don't like the idea that the disorder I have is somehow bad enough to warrant pursed lips and shushing. The fact the clowns are just dyspraxic by nature is silly, and they do silly exaggerated things.
