Theres another person in my school who lost her hearing last year. She used to be in groups and stuff, but now nobody accepts her anymore. [ 03-13-2003: Message edited by: liquidsub ]

There's also the possability that people in high schools are just complete assholes.
Well the reason for that, I would think, is that people who lost their hearing would probably like it back, and that seems to be the best option currently available, though it (obviously) isn't for everyone.
People born with a lack of the hearing sense often times seem to get touchy about people insinuating that they should want their hearing. I never mean it like that, of course. There's a world out there that someone born deaf can never appreciate (music for one), but being deaf doesn't invalidate their inherent worth as humans. Nor does it in any way ennoble them above and beyond the value of people with their hearing. Equality for all, handicapped or not, is a completely separate issue from repairing a handicap.

Since being hard of hearing is bad enough, I don't know how the hell deaf people live their shitty lives without shooting themselves. And yeah, I get that question a lot about implants. Isn't there anything besides cocliar implants? I can never hear anything from speakers except for telephones. That means I can't hear lyrics from music or what people are saying in movies, tv, etc. I have really messed up hearing. Yes I can hear music, sound effects, people talking; the only thing I cannot hear are the people talking, by that I mean I can't ever make out what they're saying.
I fight you for title of coolest handicapible person on the board.

liquidsub had this to say about (_|_):
Yes... I kick ass. I kick major ass. All shall bow to me. It appears that I can only pick up girls who don't know I'm hard of hearing; they somehow think that the 'things in my ears' are a stylish thing. Some simply just can't seem to notice, yet my hair is short allowing my hearing aids to be visible.
Just tell them all theri your bling bling
