Able-bodied privilege . . . yes, exactly! I was trying to explain 2) concisely and you just did it for me. :D

I'm really hoping for the execution to be right (if it ever does happen), but I wouldn't be surprised if it weren't. At least, though, I know I can go online and read about the way it should've been done. :/

Able-bodied privilege...

*snaps fingers* Yes! That! That's the word I was looking for.

I could understand Tina's reasoning since I've grown up with something of an anxiety disorder too, but I really think it was a step too far for her to go to. Especially since my younger sister and a former classmate of mine have been sufferers of the stuttering problem---and, yeah, so many kids were dicks to them about it too.

I remember a friend of mine was paraplegic. She used to tell me of her elementary school, and said she used to cry when people there actually told her ignorant things, like, how "lucky" she was that she didn't have to do gym or walk up the stairs.

It didn't help that she wasn't always wheelchair-bound (that she had been in a car crash when she was seven) so to hear people actually try comment on her so-called "luckiness" by people who had no idea what she went through...

...yeah, I can understand why Tina did what she did, but it sure as hell isn't excusable.

I think you can tell I have no tolerance for able-bodied privilege...

I'm thinking to write this whole comment to the Glee writers as a letter. I think I should ;)

Do it! It's hard to tell whether they'll take it seriously, because I read on handicapable activists' blogs that the Glee people (didn't specify whom unfortunately) were kind of dicks about their complaints. They focused on the complaints that Kevin McHale isn't disabled, but ignored the whole crip drag aspect of the complaints, and said that "Wheels" was going to address their concerns and show why they picked Kevin McHale as Artie. Which, you know. I love a lot of things about both Kevin as Artie and "Wheels" as an episode, but Glee people could've actually -- not dismissed the complaints with a handwave and a "Just watch the episode!"

On the other hand, I find the actors at least very open to viewers' responses. And it seems like they're going to be revisiting Puck/Rachel in the back nine just because it was so popular. So, who knows, they might even pay attention.

In the end, it looks like both Artie and Tina weren't empathetic enough of each other, which is very realistic of teenagers if nothing else. I hope they actually clarify in the show that they both mistreated each other, and why it was wrong of both of them.

That's a shame about those writers. They might as well have stuck their fingers in their ears and go "Lalalalalanotlisteninglalalala!" *sighs*

I really hope they expand more on Artie and Tina at least. But let's just cross our fingers until then...

Siiiiiigh, yeah I know. I'm cutting them some slack though, because it might just be how Fox wants them to handle complaints. Sort of like what happened with Chris Colfer and Fox wanting to keep him closeted.

[identity profile] kira-bouviea.livejournal.com 2010-01-18 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Butting in here (sorry) to ask about the whole Chris Colfer thing. Um, what? Can you please explain, or link me to a site/entry that explains this, because this is the first I've heard of it.
