Ever noticed how some deaf people improperly sign "cochlear implant" which resembles closely the sign for "Frankenstein" where one of the bolt sticks out of Frankenstein's neck?

Many do purposely sign "cochlear implant" on the neck because of their bias against cochlear implant rather than correctly signing it. One can effectively make an argument for or against cochlear implant while signing correctly the sign for "cochlear implant" instead of signing it in an unprofessional manner with such subtlety as a way to mock those with cochlear implants seeing them as "monsters."
Some will defend their signing and say they are "lazy" to sign it correctly. If they actually come up with that excuse then you will know they are not being honest about it. The cochlear implant goes nowhere near the neck. And they know that.
