I discovered the Aimee Mullins TED talk today, and while she seems at home with herself, I don't know how what to think of her. It seems good that she would invite children to see her collection of legs without the inhibiting adults around; she's trying to lessen the fear and discrimination, suppose. And that's good.
I know nothing of Ms. Mullin's personal history, but I would be interested to know if any of you patient people with disabilities would let me know what YOU think of Ms Mullins. She has a diffrent mind-set from most people, and what she's doing is obviously right for her, but is it the right thing for other people? Is she spreading the right attitude?
I will admit that I'm envious of her being able to choose her height. I'd love to be able to make myself a couple of inches shorter...
Anone want to enlighten me about her?
