If a deaf couple want a deaf baby, I am all for it. Suppose a deaf person coming from long line of deaf ancestry, is not ablet to have a child then this person has the right to have a deaf embryo. If the laws forbid deaf embryos, I see it as an attempt at genocide. If there are much fewer deaf people in the future, those deaf people will have less power and less voice therefore less rights.
although i very much agree it is genocide, it baffles me how you come up with the conclusion that deaf people would end up with less power or rights.
If they think they have the right to reduce those people they consider to be burdensome to them, then us deaf have the right to reduce those people that we consider to be burdensome to us. Truth be told, it is the hearing people who refused to sign are the real burden on the deaf population.
who are we to force them to sign? they have no need to associate with one of us. it is not a necessity for them.
Another reason why I can see why deaf embryos are really wanted. Suppose I have children and my future descendants decide to bash on the deaf people, I would be rolling in my grave. Better to have deaf embryos.
this is a feeble-minded argument. you must be paranoid.
They are just trying to foist their ethnocentrism on us again and again. No ASL then no deaf embryos.
don't deaf people have their own version of ethnocentrism? the main gallaudet students are one of them.
