Pretend that you're able to write without reading.

    Not being able to write would cripple you. Also, I'd just listen to audiobooks whenever possible.

    Think of all that you read, all the time, every day. You don't write nearly that much. Much more crippling to be unable to read

    If i couldn't be able to read would that mean i'm blind? We learn a lot from reading and i can share what i learned through speaking rather than writing it.

    Not being able to read would cripple you. It's called technology. You would be able to type, just not handwrite. Not being able to read would take away all communication. Also, if you know how to write but not read, that is redundant. You wouldn't be able to read anything you wrote!

    Reading makes you more intelligent, and open minded. It helps you better understand the nuances of the language that you are reading in. Even if I couldn't write, I could always have someone write down my thoughts for me.

    I would just type. Like I am doing now. Reading is crucial to living. For example, can't read the allergy warnings on a package of cookies? Die of walnut allergies.

    How can you ever hope to write without being able to read?

    If you could read, wouldn't you eventually learn to write? And vice versa?

    You'd never be able to drive or go anywhere alone if you can't read. You can't read traffic signs or maps. You'd be fucked.
