More than missing a leg or being deaf.

Think of all the things you do just for your eyes.. Home decor, landscaping, playing a sport, taking trips, ogling women..

What do blind people visualize when they have never seen an ocean or a tree or a woman's hard body?

It's amazing to think about how much of our daily life is visual stimulation.

I agree with you, I just think it is funny that home decor is the first thing on your list of things that we need to do with our eyes.

Yes. Home decor would be the only plus if you were blind. Think of all the wasted money you could save.

Micro penis probably sucks somewhere around the same level.

Eh, you learn to deal. Some chicks dig it for novelty purposes.

Would you rather be blind or have no arms and legs?

Someone has a lot of first hand knowledge on the subject apparently.

To me deafness seems almost equally as isolating. Never hearing music again.

I've thought about that myself and it nearly gives me a panic attack just at the thought..... Imagine being blind AND deaf! That shite freaks me out. You'd go through life essentially in a blacked out silent room if you will. I think I'd legit lose my mind if I were ever inflicted with such a handicap.

This. Plus there are other things you can do if you're deaf but not if you're blind. For instance, watching a movie or TV show is infinitely more easy to do if you are deaf because of subtitles. If you're blind you basically have to have someone there the whole time trying to explain to you what's happening.

I mean, if you're blind, what's the point of going to a live sporting event? But if you're deaf, you still know exactly what's happening and can still even react with the crowd to a certain extent.
