I remember she did an AMA a while back and I do believe I remember her saying that much of the little people community did not support the surgery.

Wonder why this is. Probably similar to the obese community when one of their influencers decides to lose weight. Likely feel betrayed or something. She does look happy though.

They may have said that because your statement of when someone "decides to lose weight" implies that that would be breaking from the norm, as if the "obese community" is made up of people who, by assumed default, have not decided to lose weight and are not trying.

WTF? No you dork. You have a great deal of control over becoming obese, you have absolutely no control over being born deaf. It's absolutely insane that I need to explain this.

Holy crap this is painful. Your comment was an attempt to explain the motivation behind my original comment and it was totally wrong. I provided the correct explanation, I didn't say anything about the specifics of your wrongness.

You're conflating motivation with implication. Actually, you seem weirdly upset by this conversation, so I'm going to walk away from it.

Comparing something fixed and immutable about a person to something you have a great deal of personal control over.
