Cute is Cute

I am laughing as I spell this:  of course I must make my first post about boys. I guess most girls in their twenties are interested in boys. Nonspeakers are no different. I have to say that sometimes the differences between speakers and nonspeakers are nonexistent. Just as speaking girls will check out the cute guys they see, so will we nonspeaking girls. It happened that I saw Alex first, so the other girls lost out. He is gorgeous, if I don’t say so myself. He is also the most brilliant person I have ever met, and the funniest. He is the most amazing person on earth. And like me, he is nonspeaking. 


We nonspeakers are not prejudiced against you speakers. Cute is cute, speaking or not. I am going out on a limb here, but I reckon that most girls who see Alex will think he is incredibly handsome. Being nonspeaking means that our bodies do not listen to our brains. But there is nothing wrong with our eyes. No one would argue that he is handsome: the difference is that a speaker would look past it, and use her eyes to see only his disability. I don’t have her blindness. I can see cuteness in all its guises.
