"I think most people are aware we exist," Alex Leffers says about deaf members of the queer community.  Still, he contends, "There's a lot of unnecessary fear. We use our hands to communicate, true, but we do welcome conversation with people that aren't familiar with sign language. Stop apologizing for your lack of knowledge and just talk to us."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
