It surprises me that we need an abled person to pretend he's disabled to realize how difficult is to live as a disabled person.
Why we don't just hear what disabled people tell us and trust them? Why do we trust the opinion of an abled person more than the opinion of disabled people?
Don't get me wrong, I liked the article and it can be eye-opening. But it saddens me that sometimes we forget who's actually suffering this situation, and we empathize with a guy that spend only one week pretending to be disabled more than with actually disabled people.
- theptip 3y agoThey are not advocating for you to listen to them over a disabled person. They are advocating for you to experience it directly, as they did, so you can better understand what it is like.
