Title: Blind or Deaf?
Post by: iago on April 20, 2005, 11:42:04 pm

2 part question:
a) Would you rather be deaf or blind?
b) Would you rather date somebody who's deaf or blind?

Why?

a. I'd rather be deaf. If I was blind, I honestly don't know what I would do.
b. I'd rather date someone who was deaf.

I'd rather be deaf: You can learn sign language and there are many things to help you hear (or get along without hearing), but there aren't as many things to help you if you're blind. I mean, I would hate to not be able to use a computer because they don't make BrailIM.

I'd rather date someone who was deaf, I'm not that bad looking.

deaf both ways
Easy to communicate when deaf

Between music & nature, I'd be torn, but for practical purpose being deaf would be easier

It's easier to communicate when blind.  We call it, "Talking"

Without vision you couldn't view paintings, read Shakespeare's great plays, or communicate through writting.  When deaf you can talk & hear music, but can't read anything, but you COULD communicate through writing & it would be easier to get around if you can see

As for me...I would much rather be deaf. I'd miss music a lot, but at least I could still function on a computer. :)

I'd rather date a blind person. Then they don't know how ugly I am when I'm scrogging them. (Kidding) I think I'd go with dating a deaf too.
