Likewise, how big is the deaf community in Kansas?

My professorand I discussed that the other day...we attributed it to all the close-range countries...you'd have to learn to communicate effectively. I was brought up English, learned SPanish then Latin, now ASL so I feel pretty good for "An American" lol.

I would guess someone across from you...easier to trade signs

Absolutely gorgeous. We would be one force to be reckoned with.

I think you look great. My sister is learning more and more about deaf culture and people and saw me online and said, "omg! Deaf people drink!" Lol she's 17...lots to learn

My deaf friends and signing hearing friends and I JUST talked about this on Halloween! Lol tatts crazy!

Never ran into anyone? Interesting..you'll meet plenty on here! Best of luck

Oh yes and if you join the group there were some sassy pics ;-)

Lol those are the hella gay and ignorant students...

I've noticed that many of the hearing people that I've met ask such silly/stupid questions is simply because they're too ignorant to think about it or know ahead of time. All are surprised that deaf people can eat, drive, and text! I introduced my hearing friend to a deaf friend and they said...

I have friends that have gone through very similar situations and I even have an aunt who disowned me. In my friends situation she was fortunate enough to mine away for college and take up her own mantle there. In my situation my aunt thought that my ex had sabotaged me and turned me gay. Lol as...

Lol same here.

Hey man, Sorry to hear about your loss. I can't imagine going through that. I have a friend that was hearing also but got into a bus accident, went into a coma and woke up after with complete hearing loss due to brain swelling. I think its more difficult because you know what you've lost. :-(...

lol I thought she was quite helarious as well... I know what you mean about it being so frowned upon. My parents raised me under a Catholic regime...eesh, it was incredibly difficult for me, but I did it! You'll never know until you try...best of luck! Thanks for reading, iacobus

Awesome background dogmom iSign, I myself am a write and when we were in journalism we were always told to write in "hot blood" so that way you're sure to get all of your raw emotions onto the paper. Then you're to go back and edit your work in "cold reality" when you've had time to simmer...

That's how my mom is. We're a very dynamic family and my mom told her sisters and it spread like wildfire. There are 5 of them! Anyways, dad found out through the grapevine and then came to me and had that talk. I would've preferred to have told him man-to-man, but that wasn't how it panned out...

My mom said, "Hey, so now that we know that you're gay..." I said, "No, I've always BEEN gay, but now that we talk about it...what's up?" She replied, "Well, I was just wondering...well, no, nevermind..." Me, "Mom! What is it?! Ask me!" Mom, "Well...how would you feel...well, how would you...

Hey y'all, I'm gay and about to go to ITP school next fall! I picked up ASL wicked fast and my teacher was shocked at my natural ability. My professor who has been signing for eons has told me that there are many gay people in the Interpreting field. I once read a quote online that said...

Please go to the website below to fckh8. From there all you have to do is follow the easy steps outlined on their website. I understand not all can purchase shirts and I'm sorry if they don't have it CC'd yet. I was trying to find a version on YouTube before posting this thread but I also want...

To be gay doesn't mean that you have to prance around and wave your rainbow flag. I've learned that you can be proud to be who you are, as an individual, not as a certain type of person. You should be proud to live life your way, not by another's command/wants. It's your life, live it how you...
