Message: <blockquote data-quote="DeafDucky" data-source="post: 2470593" data-attributes="member: 72349">This is from 2008.  Short version- she is basically discussing MM's choices in roles and how the roles where she speaks 'presents the wrong image to hearing people about deaf people'.  The comment section is fairly enlightening too.  People are going to love or hate MM; people are going to praise or denigrate ASL (or oralism for that matter...).  Same story..."This is better than that and that's the way it has to be!" rather than "every deaf person is different in their own way regarding communication etc but all have the commonality of...being deaf".Not sure if the original poster of the link will read this but oh well, I'll express my thoughts anyway <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" data-shortname=":D" />.</blockquote>
