I can back the first part up, I grew up in a non traditional family and everyone's always just been curious about it, never judgmental at all.

What were they doing at the cycling race? If they were racing, I assume they weren't the ones steering?

I'm curious, just because I assume you'd either race or watch, both of which would be hard without sight.

The difference is that psychotherapists help with emotional stuff, (Psychological) and physiotherapists do more physical stuff.

Piggy-backing on this question: So can you tell if other people are happy, like just a gut feeling, even if you can't consciously see their facial expression? The brain is a crazy interesting topic, sorry yours broke.

Something interesting: some people who are mechanically blind, aka their eyes are broken, not their brain, (you have it the other way around), end up very good at echolocation. This happens because the part of the brain used for seeing stuff is just kind of sitting there, nothing happening because it isn't getting input from the eyes. So, the brain uses that space that most people use to visualize and picture things so well, to do that based on information coming from sound.
