deaf woman
Depicts a woman with one hand raised near her ear, commonly understood as indicating deafness or hearing loss
Meaning
Depicts a woman with one hand raised near her ear, commonly understood as indicating deafness or hearing loss. It often conveys "I can't hear you," a request to repeat something, or acknowledgment of an auditory barrier. Frequently used in accessibility contexts or by deaf and hard-of-hearing people to signal their identity or communication needs. It can also mean listening intently or straining to hear. Because the gesture overlaps with general "listen" or "speak up" signals, intent depends on context; it is not necessarily a statement about anyone's actual hearing ability.
