Cool. My partner and I often communicate our feelings by touch, but I'm the one who enjoys scent much more. This is probably also because I can't stand any kind of perfume. Natural, washed clean person smell is best.

(Re: Fundie and its history) How much of the history of church have you learned before versus after you left? Were you ever taught the lineage of IFB beliefs?
Like, say, like looking at the great family tree of christian denominations as a part of justifying why your beliefs are the right ones.

Hi, I'm a career scientist and teacher-trainee. Do you know how much your teachers in school adapted their lessons for your benefit, if at all?

For example, if I wanted to show my sighted students how salt dissolves in water, I would use coloured salts by default. If I was your teacher, I would instead get you to wear gloves and feel the process.

How do you feel about the sensitisation people go through?

My last First Aid course was done with an ex-paramedic, who basically said that if you need to give someone CPR, their chances of survival are at best 1 in 3. That's a lot of deaths to see in a career, which the non-medical us don't see.
