I've noticed quite a few posts referring to how a lot of hearing people (mainly young females from what I understand) have interest in the deaf and come here and post because of a trend, a fad, etc.
What I want to know is, WHY is it a fad? How does that work? What is the psychology behind that?I mean really. I seriously don't get it. Don't get me wrong, Deaf culture is beautiful... but I don't get why it would be idealized in that manner. If I wasn't deaf myself, I probably wouldn't idealize it like that.
I suppose all we can do is speculate, but I am especially interested in the opinion of those of you who are well established on AD and would have a good idea of what's going on.
Hmmm.
