I’m not a ghey but this “lol if u think queer is a slur!!!” shit is infuriating. I’m really not even that old and kids were called queer as a slur on a regular basis when I was small, what about that can’t these children understand?

Most people I know who hate the word are older gay people who either got the shit beat out of them while being called "queer" or knew others who were. It boggles my mind that people don't get that.
 
It is. Some people use it as a vaguer term so more people can fall under it for them to trash on, but there's no consensus on what the differences between the terms actually are.

This is upside-down clown world epitomized. I probably don’t need to explain why.

It also just sounds dumb as a word. Which of course is related to its use as an insult. Of all the things to reclaim en masse why did literally anyone think that KWEER was the most flattering option?

And now that you've had that happiness I'm gonna sour it by reminding you people that in the "Deaf Community" thread there are people who equate this to eugenics/genocide and consider this girl a traitor for having her hearing fixed. Because God forbid someone want to hear the sounds of the world around them.

My guess is so they could use cutesy-poo Alice in Wonderland and other out of copyright book quotes on t-shirts.

I'll admit that gave me the feels for reals. What an oddly wonderful situation, to be discovering one aspect of the world with child-like wonder, yet to be old enough to appreciate the beauty of it all.

We actually have a deaf community thread, and you're right, this would be DEAF CULTURE ERASURE *signs reeeeeeee*. I'm sure this person is getting shit on six different ways by their Deaf (because it's an identity!) community friends.

I'm honestly amazed that a Cochlear implant is giving them enough fidelity to even pick up some of those fainter sounds. I thought it was a much more limited sensation provided by the electrodes. The DSP and mics must be getting really good.

It made me realize just how much I take my hearing for granted.
