Of course they do. The difference is they think their dependence on others
is "normal". If blind people want to snap a picture the action, in their
opinion, is abnormal. It's all in the perception of the action. Judith

What makes you think sighted people don't often ask for assistance from
others, whether sighted or blind? No one is completely independent. That's
the way of the world.

Dear all,
I haven't followed this thread. Forgive me if this has already been raised,
but how exactly do blind people know how to gauge the quality of their
product? This can't possibly be something one can independently measure
without sighted assistance, and at that point, doesn't it become
counterproductive? If pictures are taken for posterity, wouldn't a person
want that to be preserved at its best? I'm not bashing it, because I
genuinely don't know how blind people would do it. I'm open to
enlightenment, though I'm scanning through my e-mail and see that the topic
has been bounced about quite a bit already.
