Presentation term: Spider
Spider, or Deaf Spider, is a term for d/Deaf/HoH people who choose to use hearing devices. Coined by me! The choice part is very important!
Flag:
[ID: a flag with 4 stripes. The colours are, from top to bottom: beige, white, grey, and black. There is a brown spider hanging from the top. End ID]
I chose the colours because they're often the colours of hearing devices. I chose spiders because they can't hear (well) and they sense vibrations through their webs, like humans use their hearing devices.
