    if you had to give up one, which would it be?

    keep in mind that about 90% of your sense of "taste" is actually smell, caused by chemicals released into your nasal passages from your mouth when you chew.

    Smell isn't that important to me. Plus, it'll probably cut down on my allergies :D

    I will have to go with taste. Like you said most your taste is in your smell anyway. I could never loose my hearing(never being able to hear Jerry's sweet voice again, I might as well die). And without sight you could never see a sunset or look into your lovers eyes.

    Smell is the least important sense for human beings. Because of our erect gait/posture.

    i think i would give up most every other sense listed to keep my sixth sense... there is so much of me wrapped un into that one that it wouldnt just be the dead people i gave up ,,, it would mean kissing my gut instincts goodbye as well and no way i am prepared for that... would mean saying good bye to my empathic abilities, would alter how i interact with people,,,, i could go on,,, but you get the idea

    I'd lose smell first

    Then taste

    Then feeling

    Then hearing

    Then sight last

    smell I could do without.

    Wonder if it would change who I was attracted to?

    Not being able to have sight would scare me bad. The things you cant do or view? You cant run from anything beacuse you dont know its commin. That is the last. Id hate to be def for i love music and movies.

    Im goin with smell.

    taste... I can assemble taste in my mind, the rest are needed to get a full picture of the outside world.
