"Christy has yet to do anything to bring discredit or shame to her gender."

That may be, but she really insulted me during her letter thing last night. The implication being that "hearing" people are not to be trusted -- deaf people can only trust deaf people. I've had exposure to the deaf culture and believe me, there are some real bigots out there. (See HTB's post #477.) I've even seen deaf parents argue that their deaf child should not have implants that would allow them to hear because they don't want their child to be like "hearing" people. It's really sick.

"Rob is no dummy."

I don't know about that. He thinks he's being really smart, but you've got to play EVERY angle to win Survivor. Rob's victorys to this point have cost him any chance of winning a vote should he make it to the final two. I can't see Rob winning a vote over ANY of the others that are left.

Cuz, you really predicted well.

Christy clearly was a class act when she got no food at the auction, paid $340.00 for her letter and then Jenna that had bought food got to buy her letter for a much less price than Christy paid ... only with her (Christy) permission ... when asked to okay it. She was generous, indeed.

Then when she (Christy) went off to read it; what she said is ... how much she needed to know there are people in the world that she could trust that loved her; and it was sure she couldn't trust the participants in the game with her. That is correct she can't.

When the women were separate from the men, they were not nice to Christy ... pretty much ignoring her and speaking in the dark where Christy could not see and basically avoiding her.

The men have been nicer to Christy. Say what you want to she is at a disadvantage in communication, which is a critical part of the show.

Which among us has been in her shoes? Look how opinionated you are about deaf people being bigots. No wonder she is untrusting.
