Handicap
Example: A person who uses a wheelchair for mobility is not
"handicapped" in an employment setting that does
not require walking or climbing . another setting she might
be "handicapped." A person with a disability may
also be "handicapped" due to society's attitude
towards the disability, e.g., if society views people with
neurobiological conditions as being "crazy" or somehow
"less than" others, then the individual with such
a known diagnosis may be considered "handicapped."
