As I stated in my post it is NOT the same thing, but thats the best way I could describe it in regards to comfort.
My point was that its not a matter of attraction, it is a matter of comfort.
A good family friends son married a wonderful girl w a cochlear implant. We are not talking about any boy, he had every Shadchan running after him promising him rich fathers-in-law (you know the drill) when they say Top Boy In Lakewood, they are talking about him. She was a top girl, exactly what he was looking for, and she happened to have a cochlear implant. I dont know how many boys would be ok with it, for him it wasnt an issue, didnt faze him in the slightest.
IY”H shidduchim should go smoothly for your daughter (and all your children)
