The 5 Senses- Which is your Stronger!!!


The 5 senses: Sight, Hearing, Taste, Smell and Touch

Which is your stronger sense and why?

For me is the sense of smell. I am big on that. Example. The other day I was walking with a friend of mine. I said there is someone in the woods. he said where, I said I dunno but he is those woods that are coming up, we kept walking. passing the woods. there was a guy standing there by the trees, we saw him and kept walking. my friend later said. how did you knew he was there, cause when you told me is no way you had seen him at that point. I said I could smell him, my friend tough that was crazy. but is true. I smell the guy like half of block before we got to where he was. the smell told me someone was there before I even had a visual of him. I have a friend of mine who is a Cop, he calls me , He says that he is gonna take me on patrol as his sniffing Lol,

What about you. what is your stronger sense out of the 5 and why?

Sight

Sight or vision is the capability of the eye(s) to focus and detect images of visible light on photoreceptors in the retina of each eye that generates electrical nerve impulses for varying colors, hues, and brightness. There are two types of photoreceptors: rods and cones. Rods are very sensitive to light, but do not distinguish colors. Cones distinguish colors, but are less sensitive to dim light. There is some disagreement as to whether this constitutes one, two or three senses. Neuroanatomists generally regard it as two senses, given that different receptors are responsible for the perception of color and brightness. Some argue[citation needed] that stereopsis, the perception of depth using both eyes, also constitutes a sense, but it is generally regarded as a cognitive (that is, post-sensory) function of the visual cortex of the brain where patterns and objects in images are recognized and interpreted based on previously learned information. This is called visual memory.

Hearing

H earing or audition is the sense of sound perception. Hearing is all about vibration. Mechanoreceptors turn motion into electrical nerve pulses, which are located in the inner ear. Since sound is vibrations propagating through a medium such as air, the detection of these vibrations, that is the sense of the hearing, is a mechanical sense because these vibrations are mechanically conducted from the eardrum through a series of tiny bones to hair-like fibers in the inner ear, which detect mechanical motion of the fibers within a range of about 20 to 20,000 hertz,[4] with substantial variation between individuals. Hearing at high frequencies declines with an increase in age. Inability to hear is called deafness or hearing impairment. Sound can also be detected as vibrations conducted through the body by tactition. Lower frequencies than can be heard are detected this way. Some deaf people are able to determine direction and location of vibrations picked up through the feet.[5]

Taste

Taste (or, the more formal term, gustation; adjectival form: "gustatory") is one of the traditional five senses. It refers to the capability to detect the taste of substances such as food, certain minerals, and poisons, etc. The sense of taste is often confused with the "sense" of flavor, which is a combination of taste and smell perception. Flavor depends on odor, texture, and temperature as well as on taste. Humans receive tastes through sensory organs called taste buds, or gustatory calyculi, concentrated on the upper surface of the tongue. There are five basic tastes: sweet, bitter, sour, salty and umami. Other tastes such as calcium[6][7] and free fatty acids[8] may be other basic tastes but have yet to receive widespread acceptance.

Smell

Smell or olfaction is the other "chemical" sense. Unlike taste, there are hundreds of olfactory receptors (388 according to one source[9]), each binding to a particular molecular feature. Odor molecules possess a variety of features and, thus, excite specific receptors more or less strongly. This combination of excitatory signals from different receptors makes up what we perceive as the molecule's smell. In the brain, olfaction is processed by the olfactory system. Olfactory receptor neurons in the nose differ from most other neurons in that they die and regenerate on a regular basis. The inability to smell is called anosmia. Some neurons in the nose are specialized to detect pheromones.[10]

Touch

Touch or somatosensory, also called tactition or mechanoreception, is a perception resulting from activation of neural receptors, generally in the skin including hair follicles, but also in the tongue, throat, and mucosa. A variety of pressure receptors respond to variations in pressure (firm, brushing, sustained, etc.). The touch sense of itching caused by insect bites or allergies involves special itch-specific neurons in the skin and spinal cord.[11] The loss or impairment of the ability to feel anything touched is called tactile anesthesia. Paresthesia is a sensation of tingling, pricking, or numbness of the skin that may result from nerve damage and may be permanent or temporary.

Also concerning smell, it is our oldest sense...Most primitive, and is processed in a part of the brain near memory storage. So, as a consequence, smell has the strongest memory response, as in you smell something, and it sparks a memory or memories, reminding you of people, places, or times.

Smart as a horse and hung like Einstein.

Thank you for that.

Thalia, mine is sight. I am a very visual person. Having said that, in a sexual context I find touch very intense.

That is good, makes sense about touch in a sexual context.

My strongest senses are sense of taste and sense of touch. Maybe that's why I like to touch and taste things.

For me, I think sight and touch are most important to me. I work with my hands and my eyes in my paying job, and as an artist. I rely on both to guide me.
Sexually, I enjoy being touched the most .... but it all starts with seeing someone that turns you on.

Thalia, seeing you makes me long to touch your soft skin and smell your enticing aroma. Once I taste your soft, sweet lips it is not long before I hear your moans of pleasure. I can't decide which is stronger, lol

Sense of touch is the most critical sense. The skin is the largest organ in the body and has the most nerve endings.
You can lose all the other senses and still survive and lead an independent life, but without the sense of touch you wouldn't last long.
It is also the most intimate of the senses.



Trust in your feelings.

I would have to say that my sense of hearing is very sensitive.
My sense of smell is nowhere near yours but it's not bad either.
They body come in handy.
