So the phrase "-impaired" now cannot be used because people think it's offensive.
Are we going to get rid of the word "handicapped" too because people think it's offensive?
This comes up because some people find it offensive it they're referred to as "deaf" instead of "Deaf" because "hearing-impaired" is too offensive.
I really must be missing something here.
