    Do you tell you're deaf online such as match.com, eharmony, etc?

    When you post a profile, do you put in profile that you are deaf or wait until you exchanged several emails? Just curious. I never mention that I am deaf in my profile but I will let the person know after a couple emails and often there is no issues.
