      I assume they mean sick like a life threatening sickness that’s not visible to the eyes at first glance. Like when you have cancer but have hair.. people think saying “you don’t look sick” is a complement or they’ll say it implying you’re lying. It doesn’t really help as a compliment because at the end of the day you are sick and you are struggling so looking presentable to fit social standards is not a priority compared to not dying tomorrow.
      Having an inoperable tumor or diabetes or an autoimmune disease might not have you looking sick and that fact being brought up doesn’t feel great when you know you’re truly suffering day to day.

    My parents were deaf and it was always interesting to see people's reaction when they would communicate. My mother read lips and seldom used sign, whereas my father could not read lips and relied solely on sign. My mother's sister was also deaf (my aunt), and she read lips and never used sign. My mother could speak clearly and almost everyone just thought she was a foreigner speaking. My father and my aunt could not pronounce words correctly and it was obvious that they were deaf. One of many topics for the deaf community that I never really see anyone discuss, is the manner in which people sign. Growing up I would notice deaf people from New York would sign in a manner I would call hard and forceful, and deaf people from California always seemed to have a laid back, easy going manner of signing. A product of their environment I guess.

      Definitely, everyone shows expressions. I feel it’s important to consider, when it’s someone’s lifestyle, I believe certain people would be very active in their main outlet to communicate respectively. So New Yorkers in example, definitely in due to their environment, are more in demand of self-expressing themselves. It’s not easy (as mentioned in the video: there are times with cons), so it’s simply different styles and different personalities to expressions because of what matters to each individual signer, I find. ❤ It’s beautiful to recognize though! Great feedback from your behalf.

      Same except I was deaf until age 3 and my Autism was assumed to be a result of my delayed language development, did extensive speech and behavioral therapy til 3rd grade when I was taken out of special ed and put into a regular class where I struggled to maintain a 2.5gpa, wasn't diagnosed till age 18 because I was too "well behaved" in class and wasn't "disruptive" enough, was told that I didn't study hard enough and was just lazy with social anxiety. It's hard having an invisible nuerogical disability especially when your sex has been conditioned by birth to behave and never act out nor make a scene unlike boys who can be boys and wreak havoc. So many girls with disabilities go undiagnosed into womanhood believing it's all their fault and constantly feeling ashamed and useless as they put on a face and try their very best to mimic normalcy.

      I'm autistic and keep getting told "oh you don't seem autistic" by people who don't have experience with the full spectrum of autism and "yeah, I could tell" by people who do. And sometimes people assuming I must have had really helpful therapy, when in reality the only autism therapy I've ever had was a couple weeks with a program that drove me into such a severe combination meltdown/PTSD flashback that I had to call a suicide hotline to resist the urge to cause serious harm to myself. So, no, autism therapy has not been helpful to me, and I'm actually really glad I was diagnosed late.

    I worked, for a while, in a long term care facility for psych patients. One of our residents was profoundly deaf since birth. He could read lips and sign (ALS). Because of his mental illness, he heard voices. I always wondered how that worked. He couldn’t hear anything but the loudest of noise ( the smoke alarm in his room was set to lights & vibrating, plus extremely loud siren to accommodate for his deafness) but he would describe the voices in his head to be almost whispering. I know he wasn’t “hearing “ with his ears, but his schizophrenic brain. I always thought it was interesting

      If you ever get a chance to watch signed theater (not just the interpreted theater, but where the signers are the actors) go and watch. It adds SO much to any performance. Many performances like will have hearing people on stage who will voice the lines in English as well for the "hard of signing" (Deaf friend's term, instead of hard of hearing).

    I am hard of hearing and was bullied constantly through school because people didn’t believe me even though my class knew I had two operations on my ears and went for regular hospital appointments. Despite this every year I moved to a new form teacher the teacher would be completely unaware of my hearing issues because the school never told them and any new students would immediately assume I was faking. Like you I am not sure why I would do this. I didn’t get a hearing aid until I was 21 and so spent my entire life hard of hearing and can’t get used to the loudness of the world. I really do need to get an appointment for a hearing check because my hearing is definitely getting worse. Boo. On top of this I have fibromyalgia and ME which obviously I am faking because “you don’t look disabled” like we are all created from one disabled person mould. So at 35, I now flatly tell people they are being rude as I have zero fucks left for ignorance. I do love your videos because you explain deafness in such a lovely and understandable way. Despite this being filmed aaaages ago I assume people still say the same daft things.

      I've got myopia (nearsightedness) and can relate to sensory aides being overwhelming, because in childhood I kept losing my glasses, my parents had trouble affording new glasses and my prescription kept changing, so I spent large chunks of my childhood with everything looking blurry, and it was always a shock when I'd get new glasses. I'd end up staring at my hands a lot because they looked "wrong" to me because they were smaller and less blurry than I was used to. I've been told as an adult that my nearsightedness is so severe I'm at risk for retinal detachment, and without my glasses I'd be considered visually impaired.

I am very thankful there are people like you and him who are willing to communicate with me to help my understanding. (I was a teenager and very naive. Asking questions and having it positively responded to has been wonderful. Please don't stop.) Also, for the millionth time you do have a very lovely speaking voice that is so pleasant to the ear.

As for her voice ... it is very clear and succinct and a pleasure to listen too. This is the first video to stumble upon and I look forward to watching the others.

      Speaking in general is muscle memory....why do you think babies have to learn to do it?

If you stopped speaking for one whole day, or even a year, would you forget how....?

    • @PutinsMommyNeverHuggedHim
      @PutinsMommyNeverHuggedHim 4 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      firegodessreiko babies need to learn how to do it because their NEUROLOGICAL CIRCUITS in the brain need to make the connections. It’s not like their throats suddenly develop and their cheek chub turns into muscle from speaking.
      You *brain* sends impulses to your mouth to speak. That’s not muscle memory, it’s *memory* period. Just like you can forget a language, you can forget how to speak.

    One of my biggest PET PEEVES is when people assume levels of disability. Someone could have a crippling existence but because they can talk to you, make eye contact, one assumes they are not disabled, no longer disabled etc. I am disabled and I'm a very high functioning human being that can hold down a full time job and social life, however, when I try to explain to my current boss my disability needs for work accommodations I often get mixed reactions. it's like "we're a problem employee" "making it up". Why do people with a disability have to constant prove we have one?! Why not say something like "Well I'm so happy you are willing to discuss your challenges with me, how can I help you? " "Wow! I never knew as it's clearly not my business but thank you for clarifying why we're doing this 'awkward' dance of sorts! I felt horrible as I could tell I was in your 'space' but didn't get why it was an issue." I mean honestly, society in any country seems to have it's ups and downs. I'm in America fyi. PS: For the record I am shite at making eye contact, I don't mean not to >.> so whenever I see someone trying to get my attention to speak up and not down to teh floor I try to do so and not make the assumption they are deaf. But alas...that's also just good manners!!! XD I'm just slightly autistic and dont' realize I'm doing it >.> lol.

      Oh another peeve....when people talk to you about your disability and are like "OH! So you're 'mentally disabled'." I like to be very specific in what exactly my abilities are, physically and mentally so we don't have these umbrella terms because people make assumptions. However, every disability has a scale.Ugh...life...people. Fun! lol Why can't we all just learn to be more accepting and patient.
