Love at no sight

28 May 2009

 

In a looks-obsessed world, are blind people immune to appearances when they fall in love?

This is the question posed by an article on the BBC News Magazine website, headed Love at no sight, and prompted by the movie Blind Loves, which looks at how sight-impaired people find romance. The article is by Damon Rose, editor of the BBC disability website Ouch!, who is blind; as he says, you don't have to be sighted to be shallow.

Blind Loves was made in Slovakia, where its title is Slepé lásky.
