    As a Deaf person myself, I am in a better position to comment about the normality of being Deaf. That Sunday times article is a load of crap, to which uninformed people are responding to with yet more crap.

    I've just had my Christmas spoilt having to read ignorant, uninformed and unmitigated prejudicial responses - too numerous to mention.

    But do yourselves a favour, go and read about Deafness from a Deaf person's point of view [and not the toss you get handed down by the media, the medical profession and other uninformed sources].

    This is my blog response to that article: http://alltheyoungdudes.radio666fm.com/2007/12/...

    At the very least, go to this site: http://www.stopeugenics.org and find out what it's really about!
