    This also with fucking hearing aids. Like yeah it sucks, but wear them - they help. I’m sick of yelling at people with clear hearing issues who are not wearing anything to help.

      The reasons I’ve heard (hah) are:

      1. They cost a lot
      2. People are biased against people who they see wearing hearing aids
      3. It makes you feel old and face aging

          Yeah hearing aids have gotten a lot better at it since I started wearing them but still they make it harder to separate the noises. Especially the person I’m talking to vs the people having a conversation behind me.
