ORIGINAL: slavejali I'm trying to think of why this question is in the humor section. Wrong category perhaps? Because the person is deaf, not MUTE. Deaf people can be taught to speak, they just cannot hear. So I assume that they would just say their safeword. Heehee. Best, LaMalinche I'm not starting anything, I just want to clarify MOST like 95% of deaf or Deaf people can not be taught how to speak. It's silly for us to make people who can't hear speak orally .. I mean they can't hear.. I say ASL all the way. But to answer your question 60% of the message for sign language is facial expression alone. Maybe they can make a certain facial expression as a their safe word.
