Maybe I should have asked if you would wish someone else to be blind or mute.
I bet my husband would say he would want me to be mute!

Ohhh this is such a tough question...
I'm a hugeee music fan, so I need my vision & my hearing for it...
If I had to chose, I'd definitely keep my hearing. I'd go CRAZY without music.

The question is on whether you choose to be blind or mute, not deaf.  Since vision is important to you, maybe you opt for mute?

mute:  if you are mute, you can still communicate through things like sign language or writting, but being blind you can't have another source of seeing.  Also, you perceive either 70% or 90% of all things from your vision.  I forget which one ...

Seeing as how I wish to be a voice actor or language interpreter, my voice is very important to me.

However, it's not nearly as much as my sight. So I'd go with mute.

If nothing else, I could at least learn sign language or communicate in other ways to people.

I would rather be mute. You can say a lot with your body language and expressions. I love to read and explore new cities and such. I love the stars and the moon. I would be left with only my imagination if I was blind and I don't think I would be able to live with that. Imagination is a pale comparison to the actual view of the night sky.

Mute 0.0

This one's easy for me: the reason is I have had double ruptured ear drums twice in the past 2 years and have lost my hearing for like 2 weeks! So I would have to say deaf, but NOT mute, because I could still talk and read lips!

Mute for sure I think not being able is alot worst I could through life without talking    but not seeing

[Mojoshog]

I'd much rather be mute. It would be much easier to function and get around than if I was blind.

[jongarton]

i'd rather lose sense of smell than lose either eye sight or communication/voice box!!!!

[clusf]

[jongarton]
