Question

August 01, 2013/ apulrang

Is it a species of inspiration porn or objectification that I'm smiling, feeling kinship, and having, "You go girl!" thoughts about the 9 year old girl with a right hand amputation who is visiting this Starbucks with her parents, dancing around as she walks up to the counter, seemingly having a great, happy summer day?
