Well, I hope you're weren't meant to imply that I was singling you out, because, I would find it offensive if anyone said it. I don't see how my being hearing has any bearing on whether I'd make a good moderator or not. RedWolf indicated that he felt a good candidate for moderator would be someone who knows about deaf culture. I admit that I do not, but that doesn't mean I just fell off the turnip truck yesterday, either!
I was born physically disabled, so I have some idea of what it's like to feel looked down upon for "being different". Would it make any difference if I was a CODA? I don't think it would. Just because, I'm hearing and live in a hearing world does NOT mean I am not sensitive to the deaf and HoH. I had deaf friends in school. I have friends on this forum who are deaf, so that should count for something.
I ask this of all of you in good faith, if I am asked to moderate . Don't disqualify me solely on the idea that I'm hearing. Give me a chance to fuck up first. Don't just assume I'm going to without first seeing how I handle the job.
