Out of all the senses, the worst one to lose would be the sense of touch, amirite?

Sense of taste. If you lost that, it would be worse.

but, without a sense of touch, you cant do anything!

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Actually, you an. There have been MULTIPLE cases where people have been born without sense of touch. One kid actually got burnt by a lightbulb and fractured her jaw (two separate cases of hers) by the time she was three, and nobody knew because she didn't have sense of touch. But, I'd say that's good, because she didn't feel any pain. But, it's all a matter of opinion. I think it's taste, you think it's touch, we are two different people with two different minds. Agree to disagree, eh?

You might think that's a good thing, but it's horrible. So say you can feel pain. You could be killing yourself slowly or doing something dangerous without knowing it, and that still affects your body, no matter that you can't feel it.

(Your+name+(optional)): Chances are you don't realize how well you've been trained to stay alive based on your past experiences. Essentially, you learned not to touch the stove by touching the stove and getting hurt. If you didn't get hurt, you wouldn't know not to touch the stove, because there's nothing apparently wrong with it.

If you can't feel touch, you can't feel any bodily sensations. You can't feel hot or cold or even the need to urinate. Physical feeling is important to survival. I'd rather lose taste than touch any day.

Most tastes are actually smells. The only things you actually taste are sugar, salt, sweet, sour, and two other things I can't remember

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Bitter and savory

Wouldn't sugar and sweet be kinda the same thing? :P

I wouldn't think that would the worst...I might eat healthier D: but losing your sight must suck

For me, it would be sight. If I lost my vision, I'd lose the will to live.

Sight is the worst

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I say sight. Not being able to see colors, or autumn trees, or your husband or children or even yourself. Just sucks.

I don't know. I'm pretty attached to my ability to see dead people.

THEY'RE ALL THE WORST! If you lost any of them it would just suck, I think we can agree on that..

you wouldn't be able to feel anything, like pain or sex

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Sex with certain people is like not feeling it at all anyways.

I was thinking the same thing. In the long term it'd be worse to lose you sense of touch because you could be doing your self bodily harm with out knowing it, but not feeling the good things, like kisses or hugs? I could do with out taste as long as I still got to feel.

I think the worst would be sight: "What's that noise? It kinda sounds like a--" "DUDE WATCH OUT FOR THAT--" *gets hit by train*

People can survive without sight, touch, and hearing. It would suck to lose taste because you'd have to force yourself to eat gross mush.

Not really, I mean somethings I eat just for the texture even though it has no taste.

definitly sight. it might feel youre eating a hotdog, but really, it isnt

Sight. There's a history of loss of eyesight in my family. I already wear pretty strong glasses, and I've seen my mom have four different laser surgeries so far to try to repair damage to her eyes. I think a lot about losing my sight, and quite frankly it scares the shit out of me.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Losing my eyesight would deplete my quality of life the most, I think. Losing taste would be the least horrible, at least then I could eat robotically healthy without caring what it tastes like.

Hearing. I can't live without music.
