Disability In The Boys

Can we please talk about the disability representation of Kimiko in the boys?

I love seeing a disabled character as a disabled person and a disability studies student. However, I have a huge problem with Kimiko and her relationship with other people and the way they communicate.

Kimiko lost her ability to speak due to trauma she experienced in childhood. This led her and her brother to make up a sign language to communicate. This is an amazing aspect depicting for one, that children will find a way to communicate, that communicating with others is a part of being human, and that a disability does not mean you have to 'suffer' with it but can find ways to be included in social life.

However, The Boy's handling of Kimiko's muteness within the group is a problem. I love that Frenchie makes an effort to learn and communicate with Kimiko. It is so important! Disabled people deserve to be integrated into active society. Yet, the implication of ONLY Frenchie learning that Kimiko's language is 100% a negative representation in relation to who learns it. Frenchie and Kimikos relationship is portrayed with romantic undertones and in Season 4 a comfirmed romantic partner. It implies that only a romantic partner should make an effort to communicate differently.

Why do the other boys not learn even basic phrases of Kimiko's sign language? I understand Butcher not learning but the others?!

These people are her friends and like family to her. Families such as hearing parents with deaf children in real life are statistically more likely not to learn sign language almost 70%. And we as a society need to talk about this. It is a blatant form of discrimination and exclusion of disabled people.

So why does a show like the Boys who points out so many difficult issues within the show does not make an effort with their disabled protagonist? Furthermore only showing a love interest learning it. Even more so it is depicted as something romantic to learn to communicate wit Kimiko through sign language.

Love that this keeps happening to him. Also, Kimiko’s face in the last gif cracks me up.
