I was visiting a friends family who doesn't use ASL and while I can kind of follow a conversation where I have enough visual cues, I got told that I should be signing at the same time I'm speaking (my speech is very good, hence they don't really think I am deaf). I was told that signing at the same time I'm speaking is to distracting, yet since signing is part of my normal everyday communication style it is difficult to just sit on my hands and not move them as I speak.
I mean at least my hand movement has meaning and not just random gestures.
