I am not a part of the local Deaf culture \/ community, though I know some people within that community. There definitely is a divide in between deaf people and Deaf people in many cases and I think that is a shame. We all struggle with similar difficulties and frustrations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am a mother of five children ranging between two and sixteen. I am profoundly deaf which means I cannot hear a single thing! I have a hearing partner. I am a staunch radical feminist too. If I had to identify as something, it would be a radfem. We are also homeschoolers and have a lot of outside the box philosophies from not wearing shoes (much to my mother&#8217;s chagrin), rocking out the dreads, self sufficiency, autonomy, being educated and informed such that we can make our own decisions like good black sheep rather than sheeples. <br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a feminist deaf awareness and advocacy blog aimed at educating people about what it REALLY means to be deaf in society.
