Paotie's Lair - When Deaf People Practice the a-wordism

Paotie has an interesting blog about how some Deaf people use "avdism" (misspelled on purpose) against other Deaf/deaf/hh people. A bit of an ironic twist that turns the table against the very people who toss this a-wordism around with regular abuse. His blog is an insightful commentary about how some Deaf people practice avdism when they want to try and "fix or cure" deaf and hard of hearing people and get them to use ASL by using the Matt Hamill pre - UFC 75 fight as an example.

Paotie is a deaf person from Colorado who visits Albuquerque, New Mexico to train and workout at a gym for MMA enthusiasts. His stare is known chill people's bones.
