Why was it always wheelchairs
Juan Anderson
But you can be disabled and with courage, there is nothing wrong with being disabled.
Why shouldn't it be?
They count too.
John Allen
If I were a cynic (heaven forfend) I'd say they always wanted the implication of disability without the aesthetic, so they picked the most marketable disability.
Adrian Torres
because we can't actually make a character with a missing limb or the children will be scared.
Jonathan Stewart
holdover from a earlier Transformers cartoon outline where there were two boys who befriended the autobots, one was in a wheelchair, it was a mandate from one of the network tv shows cause they originally were gonna air it saturday mornings but they decided fuck it and make a show for syndication instead which didn't HAVE to put the kids in there but that concept eventually lead to Chip Chase's creation.
Jose Gonzalez
unless its a hook for a hand. That... gets a free pass. Probably cause it's a small thing.
Dylan Wood
Am I missing something?
I saw disabled people with wheelchairs and with all the limbs, not everyone is a war veteran.

What if my disability is a lack of courage?
Hunter Carter
Yeah, that's a good moral, buddy. We can totally just courage over to the bad guy and kick him in the face.
Jonathan Watson
but you aren't even disabled
Jace Lopez
The best human companion.
So good he actually became a Transformer.
Not sure why they made him an owl, but whatever.
Gavin Taylor
Daredevil is blind
Zachary Fisher
Maybe he just has brittle bone disease instead of being unable to walk?
Andrew Jenkins
Oh I'm not saying they don't exist and aren't a valid choice. I'm just suggesting that their prevalence is not a coincidence, and that there may be reasons at play why they are represented so much as a stand-in for disability.
Austin Morgan
Probably cuts back on animation costs while also being able to flaunt about being inclusive.

You can still be conventionally attractive in a wheelchair. You can’t be attractive with a twisted spine and crooked legs.
Cooper Harris
Depends what you're into

The least believable thing of the Shazam movie was the bullying scene.
youtube.com
There is no way in hell or heaven that those bullies could get away with bullying a cripple kid in front of a school in front of all the kids.
When I was in school if there was something everyone agreed on is that if you bully the cripple you're the scum and you will have all the school beating you up. And that was a good thing.
Ryder Reed
Was this a waste of checks or...

Blindness and deafness and muteness are more aesthetic what the hell?
Adrian Thomas
deaf- and muteness don't have much of a visual cue. Blindness has the cane, which explains why it's still more common than other disabilities. Though let's be real the argument is a bit monocausal
Asher Nguyen
Deafness and muteness only works in live action. Sign language is too expensive to animate.
Lucas Brown
oh right, completely forgot about that.
Probably also the reason blindness is out, since the cane needs a lot more movement than a wheelchair, though it likely depends on how much off-screen teleporting you're willing to work with.
Dominic Scott
No, it's true.
Asher Nguyen
But that proves the point that the person has to look disabled and conventionally handsome. I've been to some schools where kids still bullied the kids that were mentally slow or had a fucked up limb/face.
Samuel Reyes
they just rolled with it
Brandon Johnson
I really need garret calling this guy a delusional bitch.
Cheaper to get the point across.
Nathan Robinson
because if your grandmother had wheels she'd just be a bike
