Sign only, unless pen/paper count.
 
I have to work with all hearies and serve them too. The boss insists on voice. So I am oral for 40 hours a week only and then only when I must. All other time is ASL or writing with a bit of mime thrown in for the hearing dorks who don't seem to be able to read or catch a simple sign. Just makes me wanna pat their liddle rock hard heads.
 
I voted Sign Language only, because that is my preference and my fighting for my right to do so.

this is me as well... with some of my family, I have to be voice on... but I have started trying to go voice off at home (also refusing to lip read!) its been interesting... but I think it is starting to get the picture across.

yes i sure did. back in 2003 there were tons of asl users members so i saw some interesting questions that i need to bump those threads instead of creating new ones.

thank you for not minding me hehehe
 
Voted for both despite that I really use ASL 99% of the time. I LOVE IT!!!

where the hell they go????????? :mad:
 
I picked Sign Language and Oral because I do speak some of time, most of time it is BSL. My family, hearing people at work with no interpreter there I have to speak (I will sign same time in SSE at work, never my family cos their views about signing).

When interpreter is there I always do BSL 1st option.

When I do speak, it takes long time and I don't get out all stuff I need/want to say and end up bit muddle up.
 
AD's token hearie checking in!

I speak (oral) with my hearing people.

Use ASL with my deaf people.

Soooo, i'd have to go with option #2.
