    My mother lost most of her sense of smell and is fine, haha. I could definitely live without that, but I think the worst one to give up would be sight. I could learn sign language if I lost my hearing or speech, but there isn't really much that could substitute for sight.

    Speech. I would give up speech because I can learn another way to communicate these days. But even if I couldn't, I don't need to talk. But if I couldn't see, I couldn't appreciate stuff around me. And if I couldn't hear.. well. I can't live without my music. I love my food, and smell is directly tied in to taste. Without it, you can't taste much anyway. And I'm very tactile oriented, so I'd like to keep touch.

    So, speech in lieu of taste.

    Speech.

    Smell is a very important adjunct to taste, and a wine lover, this would be ruinous. Also, sexually, the sense of smell is very important to me; I find myself not nearly as able to be as ferociously aroused if my nose is stuffy. Without a sense of smell, I feel less animal, less sexual. Not to mention, a dog's most keen sense comes from his nose!

    I can't live without sight.

    I'd give up taste.

    As someone who really indulges in sensory pleasures, this question terrifies me.

    I couldn't live without sight.
    I couldn't live without hearing.
    I couldn't live without touch.
    I couldn't live without speech.

    If I didn't have the ability to smell I would really miss a lot of scents. While life would be a little emptier, I think I could manage more without this.

    arfff

    They're called Senses because they have Sensory function,
    So logically speaking i'll pick Speech because its a motor function

    I recently realize that i can get really hard just by smell so scratching that away are not gonna be fun in the future
    Sight is far too valuable to lose
    Touch/Tactile sensation is obvious for sexual purposes
    Losing Hearing means automatically losing Speech which makes me gonna lose 2?? NO WAY!!! There are cochlear implants but i doubt it will be as good as the senses i was given
