hmmmmm
Well.. One could grow some thicker skin.
condescending? I didn't exert my superiority over you. I simply pointed out the error in your statement.

I've had several hearing people and guys approach me. When I come to the point of telling them that I'm deaf and explaining to them a bit about Cochlear Implant, they're usually cool with it and did usually ask me more about it. All of this is conducted in spoken language.
There were few incidents of guys coming up to me and speaking to me. And guess what? I couldn't even understand them half of the time! >.< They were just mumbling or don't move their lips much =/
How is it different?
K, I'll grow a horn strong enough to stab your annoying ass. How about that?
i can easily see myself grow old w/ a deaf woman: there's nothing wrong w/ that, right? i mean i do not see anything wrong w/ it. are hearie/deaf marriges that unusual...do they tend to end in divorse (mostly)?
It's different because I use my voice with hearing people, which doesn't really reveal the fact that I can't hear speech. This sets up a different expectation for the communication and can send all kinds of conflicting messages to the hearing person.
lolol you had fun? did you ever order a drink from Tony? The signing bartender?
that's fine if you want to be labeled as HOH.... but I ask you this - can you hear?

Same way here except I'm a guy :/
Not sure I voice and sign had one sign ty thats about it... But yes I had a blast! I would rather struggle with sign much easier than 'trying to hear' Most stressless night in awhile and it was nice not having to repeat over and over I can't hear you and damn people think I just mean for them to yell louder
All smart ass comments aside I had a great time and I was amazed at how many people there made the effort to communicate rather then just walking away which is what I get now, mostly its me pushing them away if you get what I mean, and I didn't realize that until that night... but don't go getting a big head over it now

I do the same and they then argue that I can infact hear and I get called a bitch a lot! Thats one word I can read with ease on anyones lips now
