I’m interested to find out what the hearing impaired think of those people who exagerated their facial movements and speak extra loudly when they find out you are hearing impaired

Being hearing impaired myself and not be part of the deaf community, I have always wondered why normal people believe I know sign language. I was never taught and was mainstreamed when I was young so I never had a interest in sign language. I was born with a hearing loss but won’t become deaf because my hearing nerves were not affected. I also hate when people assume that I’m deaf because they see my hearing aids.
