The difference between hearing culture and def culture
Hearing culture refers to the culture and norms of the hearing community, which is made up of individuals who do not have hearing loss or impairment. This culture includes the use of spoken language, music, and other auditory forms of communication.
Deaf culture, on the other hand, refers to the culture and norms of the Deaf community, which is made up of individuals who are deaf or have hearing loss. Deaf culture has its own language, American Sign Language (ASL), and traditions that are distinct from those of the hearing community.
Some key differences between hearing culture and Deaf culture include the use of language (spoken vs. sign language), communication methods (auditory vs. visual), and social norms (such as eye contact and physical touch). Additionally, Deaf culture places a strong emphasis on community, identity, and the celebration of deafness as a unique and valuable trait.
