Thread: Do Blind People Have Visual Dreams?

That would blow ass.

I can't imagine not being able to see or see in my dreams.

I have come to the conclusion that blind people don't feel the same way about being blind as we do. For example, imagine if everyone else saw infrared and ultraviolet light... do you think it "sucks" that you can't? I mean, I know you will say yes, because being able to have "superpowers" of sorts is always cool. But do you feel the same way about not being able to see these as you feel about being blind? If you have never experienced something, you don't necessarily feel like it "sucks" that you haven't. I suppose though that is different if you became blind after seeing for a while. That would be a different story. But for someone who has never seen before, it doesn't really matter. If you are still following, imagine that everyone else has some strange sense that you don't have (realize I can't necessarily describe this sense except as a branch off of our current senses, such as "seeing" ultraviolet/infrared. imagine describing seeing, hearing, touching, ANY of our senses to someone who has never experienced them). So imagine there exists this new sense that you can't possibly comprehend. You don't really care about it, do you? I mean... you have been raised to live with yNice work. I take it this is why my profile is vaguely possibly screwed up at the moment? Changing member groups, privileges, whatever?
our current senses knowing nothing else about anything else. Do you understand where I'm going with this?
