[ASL] Blake Culley - What it's like growing up transgender and Deaf

[@Moonprysm]

I'm in school to become an ASL interpreter. I, too, am trans.

(I am in school to be an ASL interpreter) God bless you for being yourself! It warms my heart to see content like this 🏳‍⚧

Thank you for sharing your story, Blake! There are so many vlogs of trans people, which is so wonderful for creating visibility and being a support to all people, trans, cis or whatever, to understand themselves and others better. CC is getting a lot better, but there is always a great need, especially for Deaf who often have limited access. I'm so glad you found support, and that you are paying it forward by supporting others.

[@merutsukiinuyoukai5232]

Hi! I would like meet you. My name is Merutsuki. I am deaf and non-binary & transgender male.

[@marygrinter4878]

Many signs in ASL are gendered. Are there non-binary versions of all of these signs that we can learn and use to not assume a person's gender?

[@bob3Rann]

I don't know what ASL you're using, but there are literally like maaaaybe like 10 gendered signs and you can usually just drop prefixes???

[@Deaftractor]

Interesting what you say. I wish to met you to learning from you. I’m bisexual. Mostly men. You look good and cute too 🤟😉

CODA here... Please you have to inform the Deaf community the good the bad and the ugly about Transit over! You need a good advocator as well as a good interpreter and you need to know the truth of what's really going on when you go through these procedures! In the hearing world a lot of people unfortunately think this way they take advantage of the Deaf people as though they are stupid I've seen this throughout my whole life! I want you to be safe...this is my community as well as a CODA! I love my Deaf people!!! 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
