most will probably say it's easier to learn sign language than to voice train

Me when I can't figure out fundamental frequencies and spectral rolloff so I study directional verbs and locus indexing

Learning sign language is a neat and helpful skill.

I got one of those voice amplifiers for work because my normal speaking voice is okay, but yelling is Out Of The Question.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Other way around for me, my normal speaking voice is unheard, but my yelling voice is way too loud and aggressive.

print a little business card that says "not deaf, just not talking"

This happened to me too so here's what I say - roll with it. I think if you look at it from the right angle, it's incredibly comforting to know that you don't have to talk and they're cool with it, even if it is a bit awkward.

CW - transphobiaI don't know what kind of store it is for you but it happened to me at a sandwich place, and if I had a bad experience somewhere else where I felt judged because of my voice it was really nice having a safe backup place to fall back to when I needed it.
