Blind Woman Massage?
For the most part, I thought this was a good article:
Until, that is, I saw this paragraph:
In some cases, even when they do have a job, people with disabilities are limited in what they can apply for. Blind people, for example, traditionally become masseuses.I have never seen our heard of a "Blind Woman Massage" being offered. AFAIK, this trade is only available to blind men. Also, blind men don't make-up a large percentage of those providing massages. To me, this statement stinks of the same type of stereotyping as saying that most Chinese in Western countries go into the laundry or fast-food businesses.
It would be wonderful if Bristow would do some research into what careers are available to the disabled in China, instead of making such a shallow and meaningless statement.
Guess what genius. A shit load of them do go into the laundry and fast food business. So I guess that 'stinks' of factual accuracy.
