[stylist] descriminative against voices.

[Aziza]

I'm not really sure. I have many deaf friends, ranging from hearing impaired 
like my mom, to deaf-blind like my friends from school. I don't really mind, 
or think anything of their differen't speech patterns, for everyone is 
different. But, I'm sure others might have more difficulty if they are not 
used to it, or lack the patience.
