I'm the opposite. I am not convinced until I "see it". Probably has to do with our innate talents.

The problem is not whether you (or anybody) can be convinced by seeing something that is true. Mathematics study involves a lot of drawing curves etc so you can develop geometric/visual intuition about things, and of course that is a good idea.

The problem is that it is far too easy to convince someone of something which is not true via visual means.
