Desperate times, desperate, dumb measures

Today, I was so desperate for human interaction that I asked a deaf girl in my class if she liked music. I actually signed it to her. FML

Many members of the Deaf community enjoy music. 1) They can enjoy the feeling of the vibration, especially if it's bass-heavy. It's still a way of "listening", just not the way that the Hearing community know it. 2) Even the profoundly Deaf are not always 100% without hearing. My first boyfriend was Deaf, but would remove his hearing aids when we went to shows so that he could enjoy the music better. It was loud enough that he could still hear it in the traditional way.

I thought deaf people still like music? Because of the vibrations

Maybe the young lady, was in need of human interaction too. And the fact that you took the time to learn sign language says a lot.

She might appreciate that you treated her like everyone else. Since they still listen to music.

I dated a deaf girl at one point.Ya know deaf people are capable of feeling the vibrations(bass) like the rest of us and can still enjoy some music.Also not all deaf people are at 100% hearing loss. Hearing loss -reduced ability Deafness -cannot understand most speech even when its amplified Profound deafness -total lack of hearing Depending where she is on that scale, she may still be able to enjoy some music. music videos and subtitles are also an option for deaf people to experience the vibe of the music. combining the ability to feel the base,subtitles and watching the video lets them experience the music in a way.
