This is especially evident in congenitally blind children who eye press and rock. We have internal conflict on issues unique to our group. Other conflicts include Cane vs. Dog. An interesting fact to note here is that while most sighted people know very little about these debates, most blind people are well aware of them and are on the front line. We share internal conflicts alien to the larger community.
Many blind people have the same concerns.
We are intrinsically linked by the concerns that we share. I'm sure that many people could add to this list of attributes unique to the blind. As you noticed, I've brought up the deaf community as a model culture with which to measure the blind culture's growth. Since the Deaf are a well established culture with many admirable traits, and since they have a sensory impairment much like ourselves, it's logical that we compare the blind community to the deaf culture in some instances. Let's review the major points though.
