What about lack of sexual desireablity?
Who WERE these judges?

I will forever put the name of the dissenting judge on my wall, in a place of honor occupied by a shrinking number of intelligent federal employees:
Justice Karen LeCraft Henderson.
So who were the other two?

When did f***ing become a major life activity? It's not included on the list in my LTC policy.
As I said in the Case of the Wrong-Site Surgery: Nuts!

Presumably this would not be a disability as one should have more time to work and think about work. I am not sure how this is a disability.
Define Sex

The court must have looked at Bill Clinton's definition of sex. If it is Oral, than it is not really sex. The Agency solution in this case should be to : 1. Hire a prostitute (Sex Therapist) to help her overcome her disability. 2. Put cameras in all of the rooms in her house to verify her disability. 3. Physical demonstrate for/with the court her lack of fulfillment. All at the Agency's expense.
We need to have this court ruled metally disabled, disbanded and provided a real life.
Cancer and Disability

I am confused -- perhaps someone can clear me up on this. If a person is refused a job because she/he once had cancer, isn't this refusing a person a job because of a disability (a medical condition)? If I were to get the flu, a cold, mumps, measles, samonella poisoning -- and a doctor had certified me as cured -- could an agency refuse me a job because someday in the future I might get sick again? Or is cancer considered different?
I truly wonder if all of this "sexual dysfunction" issue came in because somehow there was a loophole in the ADA where they don't have to cover cancer or other illnesses.
This is crazy

The reason given is wierd. The result is right.
For crying out loud! She was medically cleared but some bureaucrat decides she doesn't qualify.
I wonder how many men with remitted cancer have been allowed such postings?
They should have found in her favor on the grounds that the denial was based on speculation and not on medical advice. Then there wouldn't be this really wierd bunch of unintended consequences hiking up the road.
