It makes sense and I totally get why people have details like this in their profile. Personally I'm so, so tired of having to disclose my own private details around disability irl in order to have people treat me humanely when I cannot physically function. I'm not willing to do it on a pet sim site, and I'm not going to cater to people that take their frustration (over stupid shit like hearing back from a nest rental within 20 hrs, which I have seen) out on people by bullying them or trying to convince people that they're getting scammed, even if I could potentially prevent this by disclosing my personal details. Because fuck those people.
I'm genuinely glad other people have found community on FR through sharing disability status, and I definitely get a certain amount of social privilege from having a disability that isn't always visible, and that doesn't affect me 100% of the time. A lot of other people don't get that. But damn I still don't want to have to share any of that shit on my profile, I'm already sick of that.
