The Deaf Way to endorse abuse.
At The Rim It has to be said the isolated nature of the 'Deaf' communities,  and some accepted 'norms' borders on real neglect of women's rights to their detriment.  There is almost an incestuous nature of the communal makeup where a dearth of females can mean they get 'passed around' the deaf menfolk, women may feel that is still their choice to choose a partner, but that 'ch...

Lost to deaf culture.

I knew that if something unforeseen happened, the media and those...

Cultural awareness a myth?
