i am deaf and dumb man. I would like to tell you something.
I was curious to know what thie Telanga is lol. Then I saw above.
I want to request you and everyone who is reading my message that please stop using the term dumb and instead use mute.
1- You are not dumb
2- The term is wrong as it is based on assumption that somehow those who are deaf and mute are less developed mentally and therefore more likely to be dumb. It is not used these days. it is offensive, wrong, misplaced.
I personally know that deaf and mute people are not dumb. They are smart, intelligent and in many ways more developed than non deaf/mute people because they use their other abilities more efficiently. In conclusion we all have issues and that does not make us less.
Now what the heck is telanga? lol. ok i know..its place i guess. tc
