Ok let me rephrase this....?

Question

If someone is born BOTH blind and def how would they have any understanding on what exactly Love means, and How would they be able to communicate if they can not learn to communicate...You need hearing to learn to speak, and you needs eyes to learn to write,sign language, and to watch, this is not a racist question to anyone who is trying to say im discreminating others, its a 100% non racial slur Its a question to understand how life works.

Answer 1

No, i get it and it is a really great question to think about.
I believe that we are born to understand and recognise love in our own way. Even people who do have all their faculties will have 101 different reasons and understanding of the word love.

So i think we cannot break love into categories for people that are privileged enough to able to hear and see. I believe love is learnt through touch and these people would have there own way at communicating there love for each other.

Love always finds a way, they would know that they have experiences love from there parents because they would know that nurturing and kindness and discipline are all ways of love.

I would admit it would need a lot of patience to understand, that being a person who has all my faculties, BUT i think you would be very surprised to watch a person who cannot hear or see express love in a way that we will never have the chance to experience or understand.

Answer 2

I'm not sure if you're the same person, but I really think you would be interested in what Helen Keller has written.

There are many ways to communicate, not just the ways that people who hear and see can communicate. There is touch and there is feeling and sensation in general. Our whole body 'feels' not just the senses of our hearing and sight. Our brain is powerful and those who do not have one or more senses like we have usually have more power and function in their other senses...and maybe they even have power of perception that we can't even conceive of since we have all of our senses filling our brain with information instead.

Perhaps they have different power of the mind or even telepathic reception.

Depends on what you think love is but I think love is the way you behave towards people or a person, and the way you think about people or a person, and how you speak and communicate. A person who is blind and deaf can do all of these things. Maybe not in the way you would but that can be true of any two people who express themselves in different ways....

Answer 3

I have 2 cousins that are deaf....but they can see...I do notice they are way more animated than the average person to express their feelings. In the same way, I have known a blind guy in college and his sense of touch and sound were remarkable. I feel that the other senses get that much more heightened. SO a blind and deaf person would have a stronger sense of touch (such as a blind person) and a stronger sense of smell (as both a blind an deaf person). Most likely the sense of smell, touch would supercede that of a person who can both see and hear and even supercede that of a person who is afflicted with the inability to see but can hear and vice versa. Since love is a feeling and everyone wants to have companionship and to be cared for innately, I don't believe this would affect someone's desire and ability to love others.

Answer 4

I concur with the first answer -- read Helen Keller's works.
Go to the Helen Keller International website:
http://www.hki.org/about/helenkeller.html

The deaf-blind learn to communicate by using sign language in the palm of the hand and by reading and writing braille.

I am an Audiologist, and have had patients who are deaf-blind.

Answer 5

everyone knows how to love. it is not learned it is life. i have worked with people who are blind, deaf, mute, etc at the same time and trust me they communicate. this is out of what you are asking but for instance.

i have worked with people that the only thing on their body they can move is their eyes. what we did is put a thumb up and said this is yes. we then put a thumb down and said this is no. we asked a question that ends in yes or no and they moved their eyes to the correct thumb. pretty amazing hah? you do what ever works. but talking is not the only form of communication. non verbal and body language is more readable. try it!

Answer 6

Love is a feeling. Deaf and Blind people feel love the same way anyone else does. You love your parents don't you? It has nothing to do with how they look.

Love is a basic emotion. It's not something that can be explained here.

Answer 7

They can respond to kindness, touch, even if they aren't able to see or hear, there are several things that can be taught through patience and understanding. the other senses heighten they may understands things beyond our comprehension. we could never know exactly what they go through

Answer 8

NO, you DON'T need hearing to learn to speak - sound is vibrations and deaf folk have learned to speak many times.

NO, you DON'T need sight to learn to write - braile is writing specifically for the blind. You can also learn sign language by having someone sign into your hand.

You may not be being racist, but you are being particularly dense.

Answer 9

Read Helen Keller's bio...that should give you an idea. It might be a evident to some, but us humans are wonderful and highly complicated creatures.

Answer 10
