Giving someone 'middle finger' in Japanese Sign Language doesn't mean what you think it does. The seemingly rude gesture is just a normal word when you put it into context but can you guess what it means? It might seem like a rude gesture to us but giving someone 'the finger' simply means 'brother' when you put it into the context of Japanese Sign Language.

However, while the middle finger might not actually mean something as crude as it does in American or English culture, many Japanese people are now more than aware of the double meaning after the gesture has emerged in films.

Check it out at This Is Not 'F**k You' In Japanese Sign Language.

Deaf Man Sues Pornhub For Lack Of Captions

Pornhub is being sued by a Deaf man because only a small percentage of the videos uploaded onto the website are captioned.

PHOENIX -- A man is reportedly suing an adult video website for alleged rights violations because there is a lack of closed captioning on at least some videos.

According to TMZ, Yaroslav Suris' lawsuit against Pornhub claims the lack of closed captioning violates the rights of Deaf and Hearing-Impaired under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of the United States Code.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

In court documents cited by TMZ, Suris claims the Deaf and Hearing Impaired can't understand the audio portion of videos on the websites, and listed a number of videos that the man watched, but couldn't understand the dialogue.

In the documents, Suris reportedly claims he and those in similar situations would pay money for a premium subscription, but calls it pointless without the subtitles.

Suris, according to the TMZ report, is suing for Pornhub to add closed captioning, in addition to damages. Pornhub officials told TMZ the website does have a closed captions category, and says the company generally does not comment on active lawsuits. This is not the first time the issue of closed captioning for online videos has been in the spotlight.

According to a 2015 report by the BBC, a YouTuber named Rikki Poynter raised awareness for closed captioning on YouTube. A video made by Poynter on the issue was cited by popular YouTuber Tyler Oakley as an inspiration for him to add closed captioning to all his videos on YouTube.
