I'd rather be deaf. I feel like you can lead a much more normal life if your deaf than if you're blind.

I went almost completely blind for a month last winter because of a sinus infection. I thought about this question a lot because of my condition. My conclusion is that I can still play music without vision and it would make it easier to have sex with unattractive girls. Win-Win, brah

Deaf.

It's hard to say which you would recommend, because these are conditions in which people don't choose to have but are given regardless to their situation.

Definitely deaf, but I guess for the same type of reason that the people who say music - being deaf would still allow me to do the things that I enjoy doing the most, while being blind would make them much more difficult - sport, hiking, reading etc. Of course there are ways to work around some of these, but they don't seem to be as good as the real thing (especially with hiking).

Also being deaf would mean I wouldn't have to respond to annoying old women on busses who try to talk to you while you have headphones on and are reading a book, so it might even make my life better :P

Also, sign language is a beautiful way of communication, in its tactile fluidity and construction as a language without speech.

I'm quite surprised people would choose blind. That's pretty interesting.

Deaf, I wuold rather communicate with writing and sign language than not being able to see. Besides, I don't think I could shred without seeing the bag.
