Another one in need of KY it seems, though I'm not sure how euphemistic that is, given its suggestiveness, and while linguistic cruelty or insensitivity should be avoided I'm resistant to coy, muffled expressions such as 'differently abled'. My lip-reading tutor used always to say 'hearing impaired' & I itched to tell her I was just fucking deaf, though of course I didn't.
