Sandwich Anarchist posted:Being a woman on the internet is wild, y'all. I got some creepy ones I kept; the craziest was a lawyer that sent me nearly twenty messages all during a Saturday, being pushy about me giving him my number, and devolving into how his time was super important and telling me how much he made in an hour, threatening me, and claiming I’d never be able to afford the bar he had suggested anyway. I blocked him and reported him; he made a burner account to call me a oval office about a dozen more times. (The ‘compliment’ was two months after the first message) One guy messaged me, all it said was ‘Hey how are you?’. His profile picture was his penis.

Soysaucebeast posted:Anytime I've dated someone and it started getting serious, I always sat them down and told them that a public proposal is a deal breaker for me. I have social anxiety to begin with, and I hate being the center of attention. Mix that with the fact that if I say no then I'm the bad guy, and it's an instant break up for me. I really upset one guy by saying that, but screw you, I'm not a prop for your ego. A good friend of mine's boyfriend popped the question to her via the Jumbotron at a Red Sox game. At the engagement party she called me a 'loving downer' when I said a proposal of that caliber is like, my worst nightmare; being put on the spot like that.

I mean it sounds awful to me too but telling someone their proposal is your worst nightmare at the actual party celebrating that proposal does indeed sound like being a loving downer It was 100% a surprise to her, and she was saying how my boyfriend at the time should go the 'huge public surprise route'. I'm probably a downer, but that sort of spectacle ain't my cup of tea.

M_Sinistrari posted:I remember reading some article years back where the author admitted she was so nervous on a date she pulled her gameboy out of her purse and started playing it in front of her date. I remember that article. In a similar vein, my brother's first serious girlfriend did that at a wedding reception. In the photo album you could see her in the background hunched over tapping her stylus instead of interacting with anyone. Apparently she didn't leave the table the entire reception. Of course she got razzed about it (still does, even though they've been broken up for like a decade). IIRC, her reasoning was 'I didn't know anybody'/didn't like most of my brother's friends. But drat, at least do some mingling with your date.

Too many times I've had men mime talking at me to get my attention and then laugh about how I couldn't hear them even though I could hear just fine, and if I say that with headphones still in place, I get the "Awww you're no fun!" Can confirm. I was on the metro once, and the douchebag next to me pulled out one of my earbuds to tell me I smelled nice.

Deified Data posted:I am an extraordinarily chill person and having an earbud accidentally torn out of my ear by my own movement makes me unjustifiably angry. I cannot imagine the gall of someone who would do that on purpose to someone else. They have to know they're pissing you off. Like, a normal person would probably tap a person on the shoulder and say 'I like that perfume you have on.' But nooooo, that would respect personal space. It only ranked slightly lower than the other thing that creeps me out ear-wise. I have a lot of blingy ear piercings. Normal people might say 'I like that blue and white piece' or pinch their own ear to indicate which one they mean. Weird assholes reach out and touch my ear, even if it's one of rook or conch piercings, which is inside my ear.

crowtribe posted:100% depends on placement (and whether your piercer is a lovely 19 year old at a store that also sells bongs or a professional at a piercing studio). Eyebrows, lips and nostrils are fairly negligible, septums make your eyes water, tongues and cheeks are... an experience. Yeah, definitely on placement/experience. I've heard horror stories about a piercer goofing up and going through the septum cartilage instead of the little fleshy part at the front, and that sounds loving horrible. Don't we all just love unsolicited comments about hair/piercings/tattoos? I worked a job where only my nostril hoop and ear piercings were visible (septum flipped; lip taken out for shifts), and I used to get so many older women giving me unsolicited 'If I was your mother...' poo poo about it. All I'd ever say was 'My mother knows you can take earrings out.' Except the time it started with 'I'm glad I'm not your mother because...'. My boss got a little cross with me because that time I said 'I'm glad you're not my mom too.'

I just told him where the air freshener was. We're still together.

I did my Masters and Ph.D. at Gallaudet (and we learned about DPN in my undergrad classes). The big issue with DPN was that the Gallaudet community had been pushing for a Deaf President at the university, and had two qualified Deaf candidates : I. King Jordan (deafened in his twenties after a motorcycle accident) and Harvey Corson (at the time, director of the American School for the Deaf). The Gallaudet Board of Trustees, the majority of which were hearing, passed them both over for Elizabeth Zinser, the lone hearing candidate in the final three. After six days, Zinser resigned and I. King Jordan was appointed the new president. When he retired in 2006, there were grumblings of a new protest, because Jane K. Fernandes wasn't seen as 'Deaf enough'. She'd been raised oral and only learning ASL as an adult.

Dick Burglar posted:I don't mean to sound like an rear end in a top hat, but why does the Deaf/deaf(?) community use capital-D Deaf? Or does that refer to a specific part of the deaf community? Or...? 'Capital D' Deaf refers to a deaf person that uses sign and is part of the signing community. 'Little d' deaf is when a person has hearing loss but uses hearing aids/a cochlear implant/doesn't use sign language. I really only met one 'militant' Deaf person in my time at Gallaudet who crapped on me for being hearing/non-Native signer. But they weren't a native singer either, so I have no clue what was going on there. I wasn't an audiologist or speech pathologist.

Bombadilillo posted:It's more about asserting that deafness is not a disability. That's why you see the snob come out when people cure it, live in a speaking home. Stuff like that. Bell's mother and wife were Deaf, and he knew how to sign, but his thing was 'well, it's all well and good if adults use sign, but for generations going forward, no sign language, speech only!' And Nazis forcibly sterilized deaf people since deafness was 'undesirable'. The history of deaf education is pretty AUG in general. In 1880, there was the 'Milan Conference'. It was held to decide how deaf children were going to be educated. Out of 164 delegates, only one was deaf. The aim was to ban sign language from deaf education. Only delegates from the US and England were against oralism. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_International_Congress_on_Education_of_the_Deaf More recently when angle DiMarco won ANTM and DTWS, he got a lot of press and advocates that deaf children shouldn't be deprived of a fully accessible language. The AG Bell Assiciation got reeeeeeeeal mad about him advocating sign language access for deaf kids.
