Another video with my old hair and stuffy nose... Which of these questions surprised you the most?!
Love you so much
How do you know when you have your period😂😂😂 seriously????
Lyssssm💜💜💜
Love you molly
you a cutie I love the throwback Molly❤❤
When I was a kid I always assumed that all blind people had 0 vision and only saw blackness so I was surprised to learn the opposite
Emma me too.
Same here until I started watching Molly
Me too. I had no clue there was a spectrum but I had no one in my life to tell me any different until I was in high school.
I have a lot of questions but now that you've pointed out how silly we phrase things, I think I'd like to try to come up with better ways to ask them. ♥️
Emma same
Same, I was confused to.
Me: *takes off glasses to wash them*
Kid in my class: YOU LOOK SO DIFFERENT!!!
Me: SO DO YOU :0
That's what I say!
This needs more likes
Lol i have never thought about saying that😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Ikr, glasses change what you look like, but personally ppl also look different with/without glasses, bc there..
Well it depends on your sight problems
I should start saying that!!!
I like how Molly's headband matches Gallop's scarf. So cute haha
Sarah GH hmm I didn't notice that, but it's so cool
Sarah GH I didn’t noTICE THAT!!!!!
Sarah GH And It Matches Her Bed💖💖
Güçčī Tīñė Sorry I didnt See your Comment!!😂
RO Plays I guess it really matches her bed now 😂
Me: I have Scoliosis
Them: What's that
Me: It's when M-
Them: no wait let me guess you have problems with your hands?
Me: No it's when my back curves in a way it shouldn't
Them: Oh My back hurts when I carry heavy things so I prolly have it
Me: 😐😐 Yeppp sure buddy
I find that using body language when explaining scoliosis is more effective than just saying, “It’s when the spine curves in a way it shouldn’t.” I draw an imaginary snakey line down my front to illustrate the direction the spine curves, and rarely does anyone say they think they have it, too ☝️
I’m actually worried I have it lmfao. Ik my spine isn’t straight, and never has been, but I’ve also never been actually tested for it lmao
Alexander Denver, a very simple preliminary testing can be done at home, if your parents or siblings (or even a friend you don’t mind seeing you with your shirt off) would be willing to assist you. You have to be shirtless, so they can clearly see your back, but they should stand in front of you, facing you as you bend straight forward to touch your toes (keep your feet together, with your knees slightly bent). Ask them to tell you if the top of your rounded back looks level, or if it appears higher/lower on one side. Hope that makes sense.
If both sides of your back aren’t level with each other when you do this exercise, it’s likely you do have scoliosis and should see a specialist to confirm the condition and advise you on your options to manage/correct it☝️
I have Scoliosis too i got a surgery to straighten it tho. If you're wondering what surgery i got its basically a metal in my spine to keep it straight. (sorry if my english isn't the best)
I have polymyositis which is a muscle atrophy disease. I love it when people say, “Have you tried working out?”
No but I do go to physical therapy to help me improve my strength so I can get up from a chair on my own or help me pick things up that weigh more than like 2 lbs, but yeah you’re right. Let me jump on the treadmill or start doing push ups. I’m sure that’s all I needed.
Damn I didn't even think about having to deal with periods
@uh I mean, that's lucky. For me personally, I never feel it coming. It's always irregular and unpredictable. There are warning signs but, when it actually starts it always takes me by surprise. For some people periods really suck, and I can't imagine dealing with that blind. But I also do understand that it is a very inappropriate thing to ask someone though.
She should do a first period story time video
As a girl completely blind not light perception or anything dealing with periods can be challenging but then again it is for every girl it’s not a big deal you are aware of when it’s happening also as a blind person you just learn how to do things how ever you feel like doing them
Christina Aswez they surprise me too but i always feel when they actually happen. also smell and touch exist
Christina Aswez id be like take me to the loo
So my sister is blind, one day when we were in school one of her classmates asked if I walked around the house with a blindfold on so we could see the same......people are just idiots 😂😂
Oml
Same name and cool story
@@freyahasfun4755 this is totally not biased, but you have the best name in the universe XX😂😂
thanks I thought of it years ago for my channel lol
@@freyahasfun4755 I got my name by combining my name with a nickname 😂😂
I did not realize how intensely I stare at my food when I’m eating until you said are eyes that important when you’re eating, and apparently for me they are 🤣 I like to give my spaghetti the eyes so it knows.
I never realized that either, omg. What I do realize is that if I'm eating and watching something, I'll have to rewind it a million times cuz I missed out on it without noticing.

If I eat food in front of the TV in the evening I have to have a lamp on so that I can see what I'm eating. It makes me really uncomfortable when I can't see my food!
Or for people with glasses, like myself...
"HoW mAnY fInGeRs Am I hOlDiNg Up?"
Oh gawd someone did this to me today or when u take pictures and u take off your glasses people be like "you look so weird or different" or "put them back on because u cant see or will bump into walls" or "you look better without them" LIKE SHUT UP
This happens all the time I HATE it
Been hearing that question for 10 years 😭
Take off my glasses and people ask this. Im no where near 100 percent blind.
Or people always ask me if they can wear my glasses. Or they literally TAKEE THE GLASSES OFF MY DAMN FACE AND START WALKING AROUND THE ROOM LIKE ITS THERE SHIT😂😭💀
Ik it sounds dumb but what do blind people see? Black? White? Somebody just said “ nothing “ and i said WHAT DOES NOTHING LOOK LIKE
The bigger question is how is my comment still relevant after 2 months?
What do you see behind yourself (i mean without looking)... Nothing 😉
Jenna Markes WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE 😭
+Jenna Markes what is in front of you
Complete Darkness.
90 DAYS FOR A NAME CHANGE ,YAY
Close your eyes and you’ll see what she sees
Me: *takes off glasses*
Person: _hOw mANy fINgErS aM iHoldIng Up?_
Me: *_im not blind fool, just a depth perception_* how is that so hard to understand?
I kown how u feel my brother always did that
I always get that but I don't have very good vision so I can't really tell anyway🤷
For reallllll
For real I see the fingers just somewhat blurry
Ikr lol
One of the best quotes I've ever heard... "Why do sighted people believe that the world disappears when they close their eyes?"
Hi. I love your videos. I also have my own small channel and am parcially sighted. These things you said are so true
My Life My Journey Hello, I am visually impaired also! I am 10 and it’s been a problem in my life. I have worn glasses since I was 9 months old.
Hi @MyLifeJourney and @Bonnie I’m so Fascinated how blind people live and their fashion sense and everything it’s so cool how they ‘live in the dark’ ! Anyway, to my question, do u guys post UA-cam videos about how blind people like and their lives? I’m looking for another channel like Molly Burke’s. At the time I am not visually impaired but, I would like to learn more about their community! I’m truly sorry if this comment was offensive to you in any way have a good day!
True because the world doesn’t disappear!! Good way to put it!!
Also thank you for being so open when i'm sure it can get really tiring!
I'm half blind and the reoccurring question I got in grade school was, "Close your good eye! Now, can you see this!" NO, I CAN'T SEE YOUR TWO FINGERS, SHANNON. THIS ISN'T FUN.
Thicc Lemonade Hey, I’m a new beauty youtuber and I would love all the support I can get! Comment and subscribe for makeup tutorials and lifestyle videos!:)
I like to comment random sh*t I'm only blind in my left eye, so I just say "half" blind
Thicc Lemonade so as a half sighted person, what does it look being blind? Does it just look like darkness like when you close your eyes? Or is it just extremely blurry?
Thicc Lemonade haha, I like "half blind" if the sight in the other eye is less than 20/20, you could 3/4ths blind 😅
Mary Elizabeth Mine is extremely blurry where I can't make.out things, but if you put me in front of a huge single colored thing, I can tell you what color it is. So if I'm looking at a blue wall, I can tell it's blue. And if the lights in a room change color, I can tell
Also, it is not related to disabilities... but when strangers touches the stomach of a pregnant woman. Like it's her body! You can't just touch it because you think pregnancy is beautiful or something.
Asking women if they're pregnant (or when they're going to have children) is also a big no-no
From my pov pregnant women always act like I'm not excited ENOUGH about their little "miracle" lol...
OR if someone is pregnant saying that their belly is so small or that they don’t look pregnant, especially if you’re going to add a comment about the baby not having enough room to grow. I never showed with my son because he was born early and my stomach muscles kept him in and it always hurt my feelings when someone would comment that I didn’t look 8 months pregnant because I wanted a belly so bad
I have a friend with a prostetic leg and you won't believe how many people think it's okay to just touch it when he's wearing shorts in the subway or something. Pretty weird thing to do.
Violet Heroine That's insane. You would never reach over and touch someone's leg otherwise so why would that be ok? Wow.
Me: I'm from Japan
Other: oh so you speak cHiNesE?
edit: thanks for all the likes!!
Erika Croft 😂😂
Hahaha - Love your sense of humour! It sounds very similar to mine...
Erika Croft bloody facepalm!🤦♀️ I hate when people are just total morons and can’t tell the diff. between us Asians! They’re totally retarded!
OMG lol
Natalia Jacinto I’m not Asian but I hate when people think Asia is just China and sometimes they know japan, theres India, Philippines, Thailand and so many more that aren’t “well known” to people who can’t think to look a little further
"Hi i'm Molly, and I'm blind!"
"Can you see?"
"HI I'M MOLLY AND I'M BLIND"
Haha so dumb some people 😄😅
can you hear?
Idk about you or other blind people. By since I’m legally blind and can fake being sighted pretty well, anytime I tell someone I’m blind they tend to respond with “oh I’m blind too.”
No. No. No. you have poor vision that gets corrected to average when you put in contacts. That’s different.
My dad’s legally blind or at least he was when he was a kid and he prefers his contacts to his glasses. My eyesight is only slightly better so I’m not technically legally blind but I’m pretty damb close.
Really, people say that? That is SO rude!!! My partner is legally nearly blind (he has under ten degrees of his field of sight left); he has usher syndrome and so he also is hard of hearing. I know, he can see in the center.
I have worked as an optician some years ago and the dioptries don't say nothing about being "blind" or not. My sister has 10 dioptries and has a better vision than a lot of other people. Blindness or legally blindness is something you can't correct with glasses. People have to learn this.
CopicGirl
Sadly that statement is not always true.
In some cases someone being legally blind can be corrected with glasses.
Try to explain it this way, try looking at something through your elbow or your nose. It just doesn't work. When Molly says that she can't see, it means that she cannot see, and some crazy people out there think she can see colors or faces. But that statement is wrong.
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
So someone with astigmatism can drive a car their entire life, while other people cannot. But science has created self driving cars, I don't really understand that.
I know that I’m not technically legally blind since I do wear glasses and they work but I feel like without them I would be since my eyesight is like total garbage. I don’t know if I qualify but I probably will be someday.
I wear glasses and people always assume that I’m blind when I take them off. No no, I can see how many fingers your holding up. 😂
I can’t believe people ask you about your period lol wtf?!! I know I’m about to have my period before it even starts. Cramps. Tears. Chocolate cravings. Come on people. >.
I mean to be fair... Since ive been on the pill I have no idea when it's coming as its not painful anymore, it's also very not regular (my last cycle was 53 days and the one before was 26!), sometimes it lasts 2 days with barely any blood and sometimes 5 with more. My period comes out of nowhere and shocks me even as a sighted person 🤣 before the pill however, yeah... I knew it was coming when I started throwing up from pain. 😭 TMI over. 😜
@@nava2827 as I said above...thats not the case for every woman. Now I'm on the pop pill I have no symptoms or signs of it and it's only comes every 2-3 months. I'm on my period now and as I use a menstrual cup... I genuinely had forgotten I was until now 😂 woops.
I'm actually completely normal just I have cramps when I'm not on my period
Many things make me doubt if I'm a human🤣
I only get cramps the 2 day. Just imagine if I waited until I was in pain... it would be horrible 🤣. But, I would never ask that question.
I don’t have cramps really so when I heard that as a question it actually kind of got me wondering too
“Sighties”
What a legend
Zoe Markham yeah it’s awesome
“If you’re Mexican, why do you look white?” Is my personal favorite question that I get
Joz Beltran my boyfriend too!! Lol I was surprised when I first met him too but now I get tired a little of people asking him, so I step up and explain for him 😂🙈🙊
Bethzahely you’re an absolute angel for doing that for him!
Saaaaaaaaaaaaaame
sammmmmme
Joz Beltran my freind is hispanic and basiclly paler than white #palerthanwhite song
Wow the whole bathroom / period thing never even came into my mind ...... jeeeze ppl
Exactly!!! I'm just so confused, why do people... Ask stuff like that?
That's what I thought too! You don't need vision to know when your period is on! Have they never had a period? Is that why they ask?
I'm confused
I wonder if it's men asking. I don't need to see it to know I have my period.
Becky Boncheveaux to be honest, my period is so light that I actually would need to see if I'm on my period. Through birth control, I know when it'll start. But before taking birth control I was surprised by my period pretty often, and since it is light, especially in summer, I thought the wetness came from sweat.. so sometimes I noticed the problem quite late 😅 sorry... too much information :D
Some people literally have no boundaries.
I’m legally blind and I’m always getting asked “what about glasses”? WOW. THANK YOU. I HAVE NEVER ONCE THOUGHT TO PUT GLASSES ON. I AM CURED!! Hallelujah!!
YES!!!! Thank you! I get asked this ALL THE TIME. Most annoying thing ever. And if I say glasses wouldn’t work for me, they even ask secondary questions like, “well can’t you get like lasik eye surgery or something like that? Because that sucks, you should do something about it.” Ugh. That can also be offensive, because as if I’d choose this for myself if I had the choice, right? It also makes me wonder if people think I’m dumb asking about glasses. I mean, do people generally walk around with bad eyesight not knowing that glasses exist and could help them? It doesn’t even make sense.
Well I’m not legally blind but I do have poor vision because I’m near sighted so I wear glasses and when people see them they like to take them off my face and try them on and then proceed to sit there and tell me how “blind” i am or how I can’t see.......... it’s literally like 🤦🏾♀️ wow thank you so much because I wasn’t aware that MY eyes a on MY face aren’t fully functional or don’t focus like there’re supposed to but now that you’ve pointed it out I’m sure I’m gonna magically get better
people are just curious and expressing concern, calm down
Yeeeeeesssss!!! All the time!!!
It’s Devy’s World same! It’s just really annoying. Why can’t people just think before they do something.
I have never thought of "how do you do your makeup" ive thought "wow! Doing makeup blind seems like a challenge. Shes pretty talented"
I've totally wondered that! Alongside a few of her other questions tbh, I don't know any blind people so I get curious about those kinds of things all the time. I don't personally see anything wrong with innocently asking a question, as long at it isn't rude or an invasion of privacy, but fortunately I have google and don't need to pester actual blind people about it 😅
I'm just severely near-sighted and gave up on makeup...
Molly does her makeup all her adult life. I never wore it once and I'm sighted. I am pathetic 🤣
I always forget you're blind. It's not like how you look. Or how you act, it's just-- I can't explain it
I get that
Because she is not blind, she is faking it.
why would you say that?!
There are different types of blindness
Thinking blind people or any disabled person looks or acts a certain way is usually due to ignorance of how the disability works, or lack of experience around those who have it. Molly is showing us her blind girl life, so we can understand more the culture and spectrum of blindness :D
“How do you know when you have your period “
-cramps
-blood
She can't see the blood
But you don’t need to see it because when you have it you know because of other....senses
Yeah I didn't get that one. In so many Buzzfeed articles or whatever many women talk about how they/we can feel when it happens like regardless of cramps or seeing the blood. Like most of the time or a lot of the time you can feel it...
yep, I'll be sitting down and all of a sudden something drips out, i mean its not that hard to figure out and im not even blind
My cramps start a week before my period. Then continue until the third day. It starts light and I can’t tell without looking.
Some of these questions are pretty silly 😂😂
Howsenselessdeath Howpreciouslife Trust me, people do ask them though.
Howsenselessdeath Howpreciouslife I didn't expect to see you here xD Hii
I know right. Ilyy 💋. Xo
"I'm blind" "can you see?" oh god🤦🏻♀️😂😂
Howsenselessdeath Howpreciouslife I don't think the eating one is.
We do look to scoop things up, or know where to stab it with a fork (Where things are on a plate). Unless like she mentioned, she eats mostly hand held foods
She finally got a tampon sponsorship 😂😂😂
Wait really!!!
Never mind I found the video, it was right under it.
I am blind and my boyfriend is blind. People have genuinely asked us if and how we have sex. Really?!
See My Way Elin Williams yeah personal too only you 2 makes sense.
Elin lol wtf?!! That’s so weird people would ask you that.
Elin alot of people do it in the dark so it would be no different
Did these people ever had sex or were you asked by some 6th graders?
Elin honestly I feel like not having sight is a blessing when it comes to sex, it’s so awkward especially when it’s the first time with your partner. Sighted sex problems is should u look, what if it’s not what you thought it would look like. Do you make eye contact n for how long ..the list goes on haha .. trust me you not missing anything when it comes to sight and sex
My mood towards drama: Molly in the thumbnail
LMAO right?! xD
Arianna Quiñones Hey, I’m a new beauty youtuber and I would love all the support I can get! Comment and subscribe for makeup tutorials and lifestyle videos!:)
you’ve really been asked about wiping? people have no boundaries.
andrea yeah truth they should know if it’s there friend then maybe but a complete stranger nasty
The most fascinating thing of those questions is assuming that there’s only one way of doing things too!!
Or they must seen parks and rec and assume that if you’re wiping and it doesn’t come out clean you need to see the doc
But seriously does anyone look?
seriously. no boundaries whatsoever! ❤️😋!
When she did a collab with Shane’s gang she said they can ask her anything and it immediately went to poop. Literally.
Molly: I've never dated a blind person before
**Adrian has entered the chat**
I'm so sorry I had too 😂
I was looking for a comment like this when she said that
Exactly!!
Too funny. The one I hate is Do you drive..I usually say yes, that’s what the bumps in the middle of the road are for...or I say yes, with my cane out the window, or yes, but it scares the shit outta my dog😆👍🏻
Lmfao
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
how did u even type this?? o-O
😂😂
@@nicole-xw5ed go watch Molly's video
I’m going to start saying that
Genuinely confused about the period question. As menstruating humans, we know there's MANY non visual symptoms and feelings of that time. Like sheesh.
You'll be surprised, some woman didn't even know she was pregnant until she gave birth! 😅
Sometimes the cramps are before though! If you aren't heavy it might be hard to notice
what I thought exactly!
That's what I am saying!
I only have visual “symptoms“. And random crying over neglible things 😅. But luckily I very rarely have cramps. Normally I don't feel different when I'm on my period...
(I know I'm lucky about that and that this is NOT normal)
I’m sighted and my wife is blind. We’ve gotten some of these. Others as well. My favorite is (always directed to me for some reason) “Can she do stairs?”
Daniel Elwell are there really so many people in the world who like fucking stairs??
I hope that made you and your wife laugh
Daniel Elwell 😂😂😂😂 I can’t.
I've dated disabled people in the past, and I'm always shocked by people who make it an issue. As a queer woman, I'm used to intrusions upon my life when I'm out in public with a same sex partner, but it's very frustrating to see how much that is amplified with a disabled partner.
Ah the old shes blind so she cant answer questions shtick lol
adam ayers yep. It’s like they think she’s blind so she must be stupid....very annoying.
Me: I have eczema.
Them, starting to back away: isn’t that a disease? Can I get eczema from you?? Omggg it’s contagious, isn’t it??
Me: ...
god, save me from snapping on people like this.
That is totally hilarious. Thank you for saying that! That's great!
Good on them for asking about it! And good on you for not snapping and educating people about things they don't know about, or haven't encountered before 👍
@Strawberry Dobreva Your question itself isn't offensive, your lack of googling it however... 😂

I’m going to refrain my sick sense of humour from commenting on this one because I don’t want to offend anybody. Take care all and stay safe online. Will need to remember to only say online what we would say to someone’s face (strawberry - this is not a dig at you, very far from it darling) I went to make a comment that I thought it would’ve been funny but then thought someone might take it the wrong way. So thought it was a good opportunity to remind people that although we are behind a screen and often a fake name like my own, we are all humans.... take care and by the way I get eczema as well as being blind and well legally blind) and is a wheelchair most the time. So I don’t really fit into one category if anyone wanted to put me on the box but I fit into many.. If you know what I mean. Because I’m not totally anything.
Instead I’m totally human and a total little loving person who happens to have a few kinda major disabilities and chronic illnesses. You have a great day:)!
To explain the food thing. I’m weird in the way that I can’t even eat in the dark. I need to be able to see what I am putting in my mouth to check that it’s ok. I’m really worried about meat not being fully done and the way I check it is through sight.
KiKianaKi i was thinking exactly the same... it’s important to me to look at the food before i start consuming it.. to see if it’s clean and fresh
KiKianaKi We tend to "eat" with our eyes. If we're presented with something that looks ugly and/or not appetizing but taste amazing, we're less likely to taste it /:
I was going to comment the same thing... I also can’t eat in the dark and I’ve never understood why. I don’t really think it’s a quality thing since it’s not like I’m dishing it out or picking what I’m going to eat in the dark so I seriously don’t get it LOL I notice it the most when we try to eat while watching a scary movie... I want to set the scene and have it dark to enhance the movie but can’t do it until I’m done eating so I still haven’t come up with a solid plan for doing both. I just can’t eat in the dark LOL it baffles ME so I’m sure it’s confusing to her or those around me. 🤷🏻♀️
Same. While it's rare, I need to make sure what I'm eating is actual food and not a grasshopper head like I found in a can of store brand turnip greens once. *shudder* I Also have gluten intolerance and need to see that an onion ring crumb didn't get in my fries, thus causing me to throw them all out.
OMG I got the same issue! I can't either, it freaks me out. I've tried before and I will just stop eating, even if I am starving.
I am legally blind and I HATE being asked "how many fingers am i holding up" 🙄
Makynzie Woodward I’ve gotten this a lot too smh
I feel ya on that one it’s so annoying ( I’m also legally blind )
got this a LOT in middle and high school. i'm like bruh you're not my doctor can you STOOOOOOP
Makynzie Woodward people say that? That's just like rubbing it in your face I'm so sorry, there are some stupid people out there
Nicole LaBoyne not so much anymore, but in school I got it a few times a week. It was usually the first thing people asked when they found out I was blind
My brother was wondering what type of stuff do you dream about and can you see on your dreams
Sethtech 7 she cant see dreams, say if a sighted person sees something scary in their nightmare but Mollie, if something smells bad it’s a nightmare to her
Sad Audios huh good to know
Fati Zain untrue
i wonder that too
I did a research essay on this and studies have found that it depends on the type of blindness (i.e. spectrum), when they became blind (if they were born blind or if they progressively/suddenly came blind), how they became blind and stuff like that.
It depends on each blind person, there isn't a specific answer to 'how do blind people dream?'. If I remember correctly, our dreams are based on our reality so if you were born blind you won't 'see' in your dreams like a sighted person, but if you lost your vision throughout your life, what you experienced prior to losing it can be part of your dreams.
*i have type 1 diabetes and use an insulin pump*
"is that a beeper?"
my fellow diabetic in the wild
Not diabetes for me, as we've tested negative already...
But I have ppl freak out about me testing my blood sugar to write down.
While yes, my SD does a great job and I about know where my numbers are on his first alert....
My Drs still want every detail, and since many argue about how reliable an SD is- I have to get the exact readings from the little machine...
He usually alerts to get my attention, I go down the list of command words I've trained him with...
And he paws me again once I reach the command he's alerting for.
Then me and whoever is driving go for food and while waiting I test my blood....
I walk slow due to a shattered back, literally.
So by the time I get somewhere hidden, I'm not going to be able to make it back before it gets hard(er) to walk.
And I just don't like dragging out my medical supplies in a bathroom!
Just no.
Luckily the food places in my town know us well and always has a place that hides us from view(mostly) but gives my SD enough space...
It just ticks me off when someone goes out of their way to stare at what I'm doing and then flips saying I need to do it in the restroom...
I try not to mouth too badly about how would they like of their Drs drew their blood over a toilet..
But some days..
Uhg.
I've had the same sort of things happen when I use my inhaler or someone thinks I'm going to use my EpiPen...
(Haven't had to yet thankfully)
Like just walk away bro, close ur eyes or something.
@@wildlifesymphony I always test mine at the table. If somebody says something I tell them it is a matter of life or death for me. How would they like to be in a lawsuit?
@@Channel4029
To be fair, I'm really the only one that confrontation of any sort doesn't really bother in my family.
We are more of a clan, due to our numbers...
I'm constantly getting shushed and told it's rude, be nice, there's no way they could know etc etc.
It's hard to word things to where I'm able to get the lesson across, while also not being spoken over by a family member trying to smooth things over.
(Unfortunately due tk uncontrolled occular migraines I can't drive, as my SD only alerts to the migraine and not the symptoms that start piling up before it- like depth perception, brain fog, eyes not seeing far enough out.... Troublesome.)

I wonder if that's a thing. Like a business someone went into. Because I know plenty of people would would wear a headband to match their dog's bandana. I know that there are collars/bracelets, but I feel like a bandana/headband is more obvious. You could start a business! 😂😂
It's Addy no it doesn’t match the bed only in colors
I was curious about the period too, because sometimes us sighted girls dont even realize that we have started our period until we are covered in blood while wearing khakis lol
Bailey Brian I was thinking the same thing, that one question I’d like to know
Bailey Brian I have a pretty good idea when mine is going to start, just by the way my stomach feels. I’m usually never wrong. I remember one time in Thailand though when I was in hospital on an IV and the day after I started my period and I have no idea. Thankfully though, are usually know when I’m getting it. Mine is irregular, so not every 28 days. But I really do know when it’s going to start, trust me. I work in southeast Asia though and I have to admit that squat toilets are not fun to use on a moving train.
emaildavinam
your squat toilet got me. that does sound rough! 🙄❤️😋!
Mine were really predictable before the pill, but on the pill there is literally no sign. Like no pain, no cravings, no mood changes... And they only come every 1-3 months so I can't predict by time. So yeah, blood is the first sign for me now.
I was wondering why this was a question because without fail I can feel when mine is starting I'll literally be laying in bed with my guy and suddenly jump up and be like I'm starting my period and run to the bathroom lol I've never really had an issue with not knowing so interesting to see some people aren't aware.
One of my eyes was legally blind for most of my childhood, and it’s still a pretty sucky eye. People would ask, (and still do) “what do you see?” Or “is it just black in some places?” And I’m like, I can’t explain what nothing looks like. Like, what if you had no eyes? You don’t see black or white, you literally just don’t see. It’s like a little bit of nothingness has been mixed in with normal vision. That the only way I can explain it.
You just say, “I can see as much as your pointer finger sees.”
I am a kid well turning 12 this year and always thought it was just black until I read this. So when thinking of how to describe it to myself what was happening in my brain was ??🤔
@@gabriella15748 Just think of like what do you see behind your head at all times? You don't see your field of vision and then blackness all around it, you have your field of vision and then just nothing around it.
You can also try thinking of "how much/what does your hand/elbow/whatever see?" which is again nothing, not blackness, right. But that sometimes confuses people.
@@dothedo3667 :O That actually clicked pretty well thank you
My mom's (rip July 13) parents were both blind. My grandpa died before I was born but being around my grandma gave me some insight to blind people. Before my mom passed away I found your channel and she just loved you and the message you are spreading. Everytime I watch one of your videos I think of her.
Miranda Mallery so sorry for your losses, grandparents are a beautiful gift in life.
Miranda Mallery im so sorry for all of your losses, Stay strong love❤️ 💪
I'm so sorry. i don't know what to say. other than, it will get better.
Are women asking you about how you know when you get your period? Because I almost always know I have mine because I feel it start. Seems understandable to me.
You can definitely feel it when it starts
but how do you know when it ends ^^ that's my stupid question
Interesting. I’ve never FELT when it starts, I’ll only start to feel shit in the middle of a cycle. I also have a highly irregular cycle, so I’d need my vision for that
I have a very very light period and don’t know when mine starts until I see it. I get that’s not how a lot of people are but not everyone is the same
I just get bitchy a day before.
Im not blind but i am half deaf and pepole all ways think when i say "im half deaf" there like oh ok and then either 1. talk louder , 2. yell in my ear or 3. Whisper in my ear and then ask if i heard them like no i didnt but good try anyway
Emi West We are the same. I am also half deaf. I hate it because when I tell a new friend about it they don’t believe me. Also I am cursed with constant ringing. So weird
Leah Andersen ah, you have tinnitus thats the constant ringing sound
HSHSHS 'no i didnt but good try' IM DYING
Now I am wondering: what helps for you being half deaf? I have to admit that I start talking louder when I know someone has bad hearing. But what does actually help for you? I would like to be able to do the right thing!
I have trouble hearing on one ear and can't always understand what people are saying even if the volume is fine. What helps me is talking at a reasonable pace and not mumbling. Else rephrasing helps a lot if I didn't understand it the first three times.
When she said Alexa my Alexa went off
Same here
Yep, I wondered how many gadgets around the world would start yapping.. ha ha. Just remember that we rely on our phones to read us everything. Whether we want to hear it or not. As opposed to being cited we can just glance past it and not read it - we are here the lot!
How about the one “then how many fingers am I holding up”??? 😂😂😂
Taylor Vanhoy I’m used to that question but I’m not blind
People: TAKE OFF YOUR GLASSES
Me; *takes off glasses*
People: HOW MANY FINGERS AM I HOLDING UP?!
Me; wow. I can totally see without my trusty spectacles. Totally
MaKayla Hufflepuff I know right they say that and I tell them but there right in front of my face and they say “why do you wear glasses you can see fine”
Me: “take the stupidity out of your brain”

@@charlotte5963 same haha
Oooh I have one you forgot: "How do you know when it's night/day?"
edit: Before people try to answer it/hate, I'M not asking it, I'm saying I'm sure many people have.
AbbyGirl 8 it has a simple answer too which always leaves people just saying “oh” .
check your phone, it’ll tell you, or ask someone.. idk just a thaught
Molly for one can see light/shadow so she can see the sun/outside light. (just for anyone wondering)
Madeline Vohs But then she can also see artificial light too right? So that wouldn’t help when she’s inside with lights on
That's correct. She has mentioned how sometimes at night she forgets to close the curtains (at night) because its dark outside so she probably can tell. Good point though! Also in Shane's video with her she pointed out how she could see a window when she was inside (during the day with inside lights)
I love it when people ask me about autism. I'll answer any questions you have a million times.
Because NOBODY EVER ASKS!
seriously, I really wish more people would ask. Like you said, its better for people to ask and be educated, and not ask, and be wrong
Same!
Talk to me about autism. I would like to ask how do people with autism see things or like do they understand things differently than other people? I just wanted to say that I have a mobility disability
And also being a disabled person I find it very hard when I’m talking about myself and I’m comparing myself to other people who don’t have disabilities and sometimes i’ll try to explain to people for example like I can’t walk as well as normal people can and It bothers me that I say normal people because nobody is normal everyone is their own unique person but I never think of another way of saying other people who don’t have disabilities but like in another way. So I wanted to ask, when you explain to another person who doesn’t have your kind of disability or any disability at all, do you say normal people or something else?
Angie Lopez in terms of ASD most people (myself included) would refer to non-autistics as ‘neurotypical’
I have Aspergers and I would say that I experience the world differently to neurotypicals? I find it very difficult to read facial expressions, tone of voice and body language. Eg I might think someone is angry when actually they’re just tired or concentrating. I can also get easily overloaded with anything sensory such as bright lights, strong smells and too much noise (concerts are hell!) there are a lot of autism stereotypes like rainman and sheldon cooper from Big Bang theory, a lot of these aren’t necessarily true and actually quite irritating. I’m terrible at maths and physics, I’m also very disorganised 😂 I have some social skills and I sometimes understand sarcasm but I just have to work a bit harder and I get more tired out after socialising than a neurotypical. These are just a few things I can thing of off the top of my head and are completely different for each individual. Sorry that was a bit of an essay!
Jessica Francis oh ok. Bright lights make dizzy and nauseous and loud noises are the worst. When I got diagnosed the doctors told me the part that was affected was my cerebellum, it’s a part in your head behind the brain that controls the coordination and regulate muscle activity. I hated going to school because of the noise and the there’s too many people. Thank you for answering my question.
Friend : where were u born
Me: Puerto Rico
Friend: why r u so White then
Me: are u kiding me!!!!!
I get this so much. I'm half Puerto Rican. My mom is white. I also have microcytic anemia which prevents my pigment cells from functioning properly. I always get "you don't look like you're puerto rican." How exactly is a person from puerto rico supposed to look????
Omg yes!!! I'm 100% latina, and lots of people have mistaken me for a white person. Like, just because I have pale, porcelain skin doesn't mean I'm white/caucasian. Ugh, it's so annoying. People come in all shades of color no matter where you are from. Some Latinos are super dark, some are super pale.
I'm Puerto Rican also... and bcuz of my complexion and features there's always the question....
"But why do you look like Arabic?"
Me: There are tan Boricuas....
(they see my dark skinned brother)
People: "Oh is he Dominican?"
Me: No, he's Puerto Rican too.....
(my fair skinned sisters)
People: Oh but she's white.......
🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
@Al Gee I get the same thing except I'm Hispanic
amelie Esteban My best friend is Puerto Rican and she’s very pale. I’m Portuguese and also very pale. Both of us get asked why we’re so white... I hate when people stereotype skin tone 🤦🏻♀️
So this might be a weird question but regarding sighties and food, what are your feelings of the saying “your eyes are bigger then your stomach”? I’m constantly wanting to eat more then I can because I see it and while my eyes are telling me that looks good and I want to eat it my stomach says no. Have you ever had that problem where you are full and then you smell popcorn or bbq and suddenly you are hungry again? I feel as a sighted person I eat more because I can see it rather then because I’m hungry, like I have to finish my plate of food even if I’m full. Thoughts?
Tinathefish123 I think this is a very good question and I would also love to hear thoughts about this!
I’m visually impaired, which means I don’t normally have as much vision loss as Molly. 1. It’s a common idiom. It’s not something we’d get offended over. 2. While visually appreciating food is awesome, the lack of seeing food isn’t going to make us eat less or not overindulge.
Me too Tina. I can go most of the day and forget to eat if I'm super busy and I don't encounter any food. At the same time I can be full to busting but if I see a pretty dessert I suddenly want to eat it.
I wear glasses because I can’t see far and people always ask me
*CAN I TRY YOUR GLASSES*
or they will just take off my glasses and say
*hOw MaNy FiNgErS aM i HoLdInG uP*

MidnightProse I wear glasses, and I always joke around saying I’m blind when I have them off (not trying to be rude towards people who actually are blind) and people piss me off so much, like I can still see it’s just hella blurry 🤦🏻♀️
Morgan Taylor yeah same
Rude
I'm hard of hearing (nearer on the spectrum towards deaf but I can still hear partially out of one ear, and I'm losing my hearing graduallyso I can speak) and what I get all the time when I tell people is "huh?" Or "what?" And it's so annoying because it's like they're making fun of the fact that I can't hear. Or they say "how do you drive?" "Do you know what your voice sounds like?" Or "but you don't SOUND deaf" Or the best one "CAN YOU READ MY LIPS?!?!?"
Maze Wright oh WTF kind of questions are those? You don't need to hear to drive, besides so many people have their radios on and can't hear anything outside their cars anyways. And what? Does everyone who is deaf have to know how to read lips? And your voice? What?... And how many deaf people do they even know to compare you to? Not all people with hearing loss sound the same. It all depends on when you lost it or if you were born with it. Idk... Some of these seem like common sense to me but... Ok I guess...
I doubt people are making fun of you, they probably just aren't listening to whats been said! I know i say it sometimes
Nicole Dukich I make videos for UA-cam as well and hearing my voice on iMovie sounds so weird and foreign but I never take the time to explain that to people because then they'll be like "why can you hear that?" Because it's loud. That's why
Have you checked out Jessica Kellgren-Fozard? she's struggled with some of the same issues of people not believing her because she doesn't "sound deaf" and she makes generally cool content
Emma Baker no not like that, that I understand. I'll be like "oh I'm sorry, I'm hard of hearing" and they'll say "what?" And I normally fall for it and repeat myself and then they say "what?" Then start laughing. It's sad they they think losing a sense is funny
You should get your videos professionally captioned... for those who are hard of hearing or deaf
I really want to! Any suggestions of good companies to have caption my videos?
Found this article from Adweek that has some good suggestions (:
Much Love Molly ❤️

Video: how do you know when you have your period?
Me: Ya feel it
Yeah, you just know when it starts. You don't have to see for that one ....
I do
I don't feel it til like my 2nd day
I wonder what kind of person would ask that question... I mean do women ask that??? I just assume it's men because no women would NOT know
Uh I can’t tell at all until I see there’s no signs
You feel like you just crawled out of the pits of hell and just want to eat food and go to bed
My husband has RP too, so he has no perphrial vision and no night vision, but he has some central vision and wears glasses. He constantly is asked "You're not really blind are you?" No, he just has a long white cane cuz he's dapper like that. 🤣
melime19 yep, I am blind and it always amazes me when people see her with a cane and they’ll tell me OK follow me or go that way and then turn right stuff like that as if they don’t understand at all, I try to give the benefit of the doubt though, sometimes people are just super occupied and maybe they don’t register that it’s a cane for blindness and they just think that it’s some type of an orthopedic cane which is obviously a lot more common
zahra shah Agreed. I try to give the benefit of the doubt too. It's just annoying when even after you take the time to explain, they seem to think because he has some sight, he doesn't need the cane. Well, yeah, he could probably get around, but he'll get hung up on anything chin height and down. We try to stay patient, though. People just dont always understand.
for me its "how many fingers am i holding up?!"
do you also get "can i try on your glasses?" that one gets a little old haha
Mia #9
Your response:
“Darkness”
Don K
I am going to start using that answer
Thanks
ALWAYS say 3 sure sometimes you will get it wrong, but the times you dont will be totally worth it
Mia #9 oh my God I can’t stand when I get asked that question. It’s like, that’s the go to question that everyone wants to ask. It’s so annoying. It’s like, I tell people I’m visually impaired. Or legally blind, if you want to refer to it that way. Meaning I can still see shapes, colors, and stuff like that, but only up until a certain point, and then it’ll blur. But anyway, everyone always asks me that question, and I’m just like, I don’t know. Sometimes I just start randomly guessing, and sometimes I will actually get it right. But after certain point, I’m just like, please don’t ask me that question anymore. It gets really annoying. but… One day I should be evil, and do what you said. LOL. If it’s someone who is being a. dick that is.
As a blind person, I totally agree with you on all these. I think one of the most annoying things is that people assume that I have an intellectual disability as well. When I mention I can't see, they immediately start talking to me like I'm 2. I use that comparison because I have a cousin who is autistic and that's how his parents and teachers talk to him. Really gentle, extremely encouraging over the little things, stuff like that.
Chelsy Messer that's kind of how people act towards my friend, who is deaf, and they just automatically assume that she can't think for herself or that she has zero intelligence (which is definitely not true).
@@_wffl_2553 I have a deaf friend too who people act the same towards. Granted there are cases where people are multihandicapped but it's rude just to assume as much.
Chelsy Messer 🙁
Why do people do that? Just because you have a handicap doesn't mean you lack intelligence. I hate when people assume things like that or dumb down how they talk. So stupid! 😕
I think it's because they over-compensate on the 'being gentle' thing. Yeah, you shouldn't be an asshole to disabled people but babying them isn't the way to go. Treat them like anyone else, just know they'll need some accommodations. :P How do I know this? I'm half-blind and hard of hearing as well as deaf in the right ear.
To be honest, for me at least, I can feel my period. The real question is, " how do you know when your period is over?"
As a dwarf (I'm 3ft at 18 years old), I can relate to having a "scripted answer" to certain questions (ie "why are you so short?" and "how old are you?" said in a baby voice). I agree on the fact that I would rather you ask than assume, just make sure not to be rude about it! :)
That baby voice thing while asking those questions is really rude
What kind of person just fucking asks someone "why are you so short?" I mean,...WTF? I dunno, I'd be a total bitch and be all like "Why are you so ugly?" back at them! ; P But man, being grown and treated like a kid would be even worse!
hmm well I'm 5'2" and thin and nearly 37 and I still get mistaken sometimes for a 12 year old or someone in high school although lately people have been guessing I'm in my 20s. They tell me I'm supposed to be fatter with a bigger bust and wrinkles and grey hairs to be my age...and I'm just like uh some people are just size 0 with a small bust and non-wrinkly skin. Every once a year or so I get one grey hair. Then they're like "Oh I bet you pull it out." I say "no I just leave it there until it falls out on its own, I don't care..." then they're like "aging is bad. being tiny is bad." and I'm like "I find it to have lots of advantages like being able to fit in a tiny airplane bathroom, spelunking, tree climbing, being very aerodynamic when dancing, not having a big body or bust to get in the way when I'm backpacking, being able to sleep on my front if I feel like it...and being the same height as all the locals in Madagascar so they are more likely to accept me as one of them and I can more quickly integrate into their culture to save the environment with them..." so yeah this annoys them to see a woman that is okay with her body. If I'm not okay that's when they feel they can bully me to try to gain power over me or something. So they want us to be not okay. but to maintain our self esteem we should just not hand our power over to them and say we are okay with our small bodies. I like saying "Good things come in small packages." But this isn't the best response because then they start thinking about sex and I have to shut them up because they are being crass.
@@supergeeky7529 yeah it has happened to me a lot and I have also been called a kid or a child literally (mostly by men) but sometimes by women too. I'm not technically experiencing dwarfism, I am just a petite thin women who is 5'2" (average human height on this planet for women is 5'4") but lots of people throughout my life living in America have made fun of me for being too small and I have even been fired for being this size.
I think the most silliest question I have gotten when someone comes over to my house is " do you have a bathroom"? I'm like, know I use the back yard.
LMAO!
*no
Lillie Ellis Thanks for noticing. Does it bother you that much where I should go edit that?
I'd reply with, "No, we shit in wooden buckets and dump them outside when it gets too full. Y'know, like they did in the 1700s. Here, let me get you one."
Lmao! I hear that question all the time, i don't get why person word it like that. Like just say "may i use your bathroom" Why do they make it sound like you don't have a bathroom? lmao

I bet people ask do u see in your dreams?
Lola Mckay I don’t see that as a “stupid” question because it depends on how long she’s been blind for and certain diseases create vivid dreams and hallucinations
Actually, it's a really interestinv question, even if you're not blind. Look up aphantasia! Generally I don't "see" in my dreams, even though my eyes work just fine, because my mind can't recreate images my eyes see. Instead, it's like if you're in your room with the lights off... you know where everything is, even though you can't see it. You could even draw a map of where stuff is... But you're not seeing it. That's how my dreams are.

Well obviously you can get cleaner with bathing, but until you make it to the bath/shower that day, you better be wiping yourself good. Not everyone has time to wash their bum after every shit lmfao
@@PsychyPrincess well we have time for that here, it's not like we get in their using our hands, we use a tool ,I don't know what's it called in English , we use it to splash water then we wipe, not time consuming as you think, you should try it.

SPONSOR HER ALREADY NOW THAT IVE HEARD THE QUESTION IM SO CURIOUS ABOUT THE ANSWER
Felix Reyes
She feels it
I mean I can feel when mine starts
And the cramps help too
silvercloudsone not everyone gets cramps with their period. Some get it before others never do
Yeah I feel it before I see it.
I was curious too because I don't always get cramps and then most times when I do, they come way before and stop before the flow or don't come until after it starts, so I'd be up shit creek without a paddle on that one. :/
You feel it, 100%, haven’t you ever had that moment where you’re out with friends at a cafe or at school and the second you stood up, you felt it? And you knew you had to get to a bathroom ASAP. You just can tell by the feeling of it. I won’t go into too much details because it’s TMI but people like to be dry. And you can tell when you’re not dry all throughout your period and that tells you what’s going on.
For me, my biggest thing when I first went blind was worrying if I had any spots on my pants. Because even though I could feel my period, I was always so anxious that I didn’t get to a bathroom in time. Most women can see whether they’ve had an issue or not but I couldn’t, because after awhile, it dries. I had to ask my mom a lot to make sure it wasn’t on my pants. Thankfully she never saw anything so I guess I did a pretty good job ;) haha it’s funny because I spent so long agonizing over my period, because my periods are so heavy due to endometriosis. And really I shouldn’t have worried at all because it really is easy to tell what’s going on without seeing it. Hope this helps! Sorry if I did get too TMI in the end lol

Ow my... the period question really surprised me! What has that to do with seeing, and besides that...how is that anyone's business.
I am in wheelchair and also got so many weird questions and comments. The dating question, but also how i do things, if i live on my own and when i say that i live alone i get a lot more questions. A lot of people asume i can't take care of meself.
One time someone i never seen before asked me if i wear diapers which i am not but if i was it would be a private thing. And here in Holland you have something called "dagbesteding"... it's a daycare facility for people where they can do all types off things. You can diy or play games to many things to mention. The same person asked if go to daycare and when i tolded him i go to lawschool everyone who heard all of his weird questions(it was in a full train) started laughing😅
I think while in high school, I got my period during track. I explained to my male sports teacher I had to go change, and even as a middle aged man, he was like "you can feel it, really ? that's news to me"
People are curious because everyone is different. Some women won't always feel it and wouldn't know they had started or ended without seeing blood. I'm sighted, but I've been convinced more than once that mine has started or ended (or not) only to see that I'm wrong!
Hey fellow Dutchie! 🇱🇺 I can get baffled about questions like that. I may be a curious abled person, but I always try to treat people like I would anyone else. I've heard so many times that 'disabled' people just want to be treated as equals, as you and other 'disabled' people are much like us. I don't even like to use the word disabled, because it puts such a label on a person and it makes it sound as though they can't do anything...
I got another one,"hOw CaN yOu SeE gAlLoP?" 😂 I'm so annoying
I'd guess it's more she can sense him - hear and feel him moving behind her.
I think for sighted people we don't necessarily consider our senses in isolation very often, so we can forget the other ways we're aware of what's around us
lol but the asian thing is so tru I’m an asian girl and like my friends when they were asked out people were first like WHO?? IS HE ASIAN???

1. How do you do your make-up?
2. How do you use technology?
3. But you can see something, right?
4. How you get dressed?
5. Are you training your dog?
6. How do you know you have period?
7. How can you eat?
8. How do you know when to stop wipping when you have gone to the bathroom?
9. Can you see?
10. Is your boyfriend blind?
... Thanks! Now I don't have to watch the video...

RockerCatErrorEncountered 404 no I’m part German we’ll more German than Irish and now I’m the nazi leprechaun
Lori Papong wut type of question is that
Charmed Panda ah yes nazi leprechauns
Haha....My husband and I are both red heads, when we go out people always ask if we are brother and sister....WTF!!! Would you assume that of other people with the same hair color or skin color as their mate. I have also had a lady stop me while on a walk with my red headed children. She was very excited to question us on whether we knew that red heads would be extinct in 200 years. My children looked horrified. I calmly smiled and told her we'd all be extinct in 200 years as I guided my children away from her.....lol...some people's children...
fellow redhead here! haha i've heard that question before too, and couldn't understand how i was supposed to respond. yours is gold though lol
Dumb lady. Recessive genes don’t just disappear, they are carried and reappear. I have a full on ginger red haired cousin on my Honduran mother’s side of the family while almost everyone else is dark skinned and haired. My dad is blond and while all us kids are brunettes, most of my nieces and nephews are blonde and blue eyed despite having half Latino parents with dark hair. When I am out with my bro and niece, we often get dirty looks cuz people think she is not related to us but she looks just like my bro when he was little but with blonder hair (his hair got darker as he got older)
I am Muslim and I go grocery shopping with my dad who is 42 years older than me. People have asked me if he is my husband!!
Ummm.... no can't you tell we look similar and not in anyway romantic. Upsets me to no end. Sick people. I am just helping my dad shop because he cant drive a car.
Aisha Abdikarim I have got the same problem when I go out with my dad. People think he’s dating a Latina half his age.
Being a lesbian i hear “are you two sisters?” When I’m out with a partner
But in general, for all the people. How can you not look when you wipe? What if you think it's clean when it's actually not at all, and then you're just dirty smelly and itchy. I can't imagine not looking when wiping. That's ew
Glad I'm not the only one thinking this!
Right? I feel like it's just an unspoken common thing we all do because it's just good to know
Charlene Carreon I'm thinkin at least maybe use flushable wipes are after regular wiping as kind of a reassurance thing you know lol
Also to check the health of yourself too. Make sure the color looks right.
Do you have a sense of smell? 😤 idiot sandwich
OMG, some of those are sooo stupid! Specially the period one, eating one and wiping :D I have PCOS and always struggled with bad acne all over my body because of that and the most common question is: "And have you tried to wash yourself?" ... No, never. In fact I don't even wipe myself on the toilet and that is why I smell like honey, because I'm surely not using shower gel that smells like that. -.- Really? I think that for people with acne is properly washing themselves the first thing they do to try to get rid of it. Also, on a job interview they asked me if I look like that (acne and scars) all the time as if I could choose days when it's better and those when it's worse. Like, yes, when I go to work, I'm gonna look normal and I will have acne only on weekends, don't worry.
omg i feel you. ive struggled with acne a lot on my face and it makes me so self-conscious. I don't get rude comments that much because its so natural for some people to have acne, people don't usually care. But that's dumb, like you really think someone with acne is not gonna be hygienic and try and stay clean. No one wants acne but its not something that you can just wash away like greasy hair.
@@danielleyouie8028 My daughter had severe acne for 4 years. She was getting made fun of by a few girls because of it. We went through 5 dermatologists (Your derm should care more about solving the problem rather than selling you expensive stuff out of their case of "goodies" in the front office.
The derm we ended up with didn't mention that case at all & was more than happy with her using her Doxy, the 2 different soaps she recommended from Target, one medicated/one gentle, her Sephora exfoliating mitt & her Belif Aqua Bomb Moisturizer that she loves). Now she's had clear skin for 5 months & after a year of having no acne she will start her laser treatments for the scarring, probably 1 during spring break & 1 or 2 treatments next summer depending on the downtime she's looking at.
My husband had severe acne in high school as well but men's facial skin is different so his scarring wasn't much of an issue for him after age 22. He also didn't ever pick at his when it was bad so the scarring was minimal all things considered.
Finding a competant dermatologist is key. She just turned 15 a couple weeks ago & is going to be a Sophomore so she will be good for her last 3 years of high school. I hope you guys find what works for you. I understand just how hard it can be & just how damaging it can be emotionally because of nasty people.
Good luck & have a great day!
Domi Domi I have acne and everyone is like “ ewww what are those things on your head there like dots, you have a lot of them ” and I just want to punch them in the face like I can’t control it
Tazhie Nunurbusinezz My acne isn’t severe enough that dermatologist is needed but severe enough that it’s noticeable and makes me feel no good about myself. I have 2 different face washes, both Neutrogena, and 2-3 moisturizers, and 2 acne treatments that I use daily, yet I still experience bad acne. Do you have any tips?
Oh my goodness, that's the story of my life🙄
Loved the way she said
"Noo he's my puppy"
I am visually impaired/legally blind due to an enlarged optic nerve and other eye and brain issues. Last winter I was on an immune altering medication and so I was being precatious with holiday germs. When I wore a facemask I got asked more than once by a stranger "what is wrong with you?" ... Why? Just why? (Full story on my UA-cam's lol)
I also get asked if I am training my service dog ... mmmm no argh de har. That is why we need more folks like you on UA-cam hugs
Katie Johnson i’m a blindy yeah it’s really really difficult, but sometimes it can be even worse though when the opposite happens, like one time I literally had someone with guiding me and then he literally asked me OK so where are you parked and then it hit him like several seconds later that he’s helping a blind woman and she probably didn’t park her car somewhere in the parking lot LOL
I have MS which at times you can look like you're perfectly fine because you can be walking normally. I can walk but if it's really hot I get drop foot and fatigue a lot (also tripping over words when I'm talking and cog fog), when it's cold I get extremely stiff and sore, and I get the you're fine...you don't look like you're sick so you don't need a handicap placard or any of that. But I guess that's why some people call MS the "But you look so good" illness lol.
Karen1Nicola so very very true!
zahra shah LOL, loved that story. I like to jokingly say in public "So, I will drive home?" To my sighted mom while holding my white cane. So far only one person laughed at the joke. It lifts my spirits so i.d.c. 😂😂 If you don't have a giggle you will cry. And I did enough crying lol
Karen1Nicola Yes girl! I am allergic to mean people haha. Keep your chin up. Hugs.
haha i love this video😂😂 i’m a twin so people ask me stupid questions too!!! my two favorite are: 1) how do you tell yourselves apart? umm obviously i know that i’m me so process of elimination must mean that she’s her😂 2) when i say i have two brothers the first question out of people’s mouths is: are they twins too? umm no they are four years apart
Kim Hall
HOW DO YOU TELL YOURSELVES APART
WHY WOULD SOMEONE ASK THIS
LIKE C'MON
Kim Hall I am in the same boat it's ridiculous
The second one is my favorites! I have the same situation, twin sister and two brothers :)
I have a twin sister and a younger brother :)
"How do you tell yourselves apart" this made me SNORT lmaooo people are so thick i 😂😭😭
Which question ? Anything having to do with under your panties . To ask something so personal is not only invasive , it's just down right rude .
chris guyer Thank you!
chris guyer I am also blind and I get those questions as well, I’ve even gotten questions about literally having sex, LOL
And almost a year later she actually made a video about how she knows she's on her period
@Ken Lompart Why?
and she got the tampon sponsorship
@Ken Lompart I don't need to ask but did you need to tell?
rainbow river, a lot of guys are squeamish about the topic of menstration; don’t worry about it 😜
Your adorable ❤
Only one question for you: whats your favorite Skittle?
Do they even taste different?
Laura Is Temporary yes
Laura Is Temporary 🤦🏻♀️
Bobby Soxer i have only tasted them once in my life and that was years ago
Justin Natasmai me
Questions About My PSD I’m Tired Of Hearing:
Why do u have a dog/why do u have a service dog?
What’s wrong with u?
Are you training that dog?
So he just provides emotional support?
If everyone with anxiety had a service dog, everyone would have a service dog.
Anxiety/panic disorder isn’t a disability.
Where is the certification/papers for the dog?
Etc. etc. etc.
(Sorry I was super annoyed to by a public access issue so I had to vent haha)
I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I wish people would understand that mental illnesses are as valid as physical ones.
does it annoy you when people ask if you can pet your dog
Julia Dilallo yes, yes it does. Especially when you hear it over and over and over in a day.
Hannah L this is why I refuse to get a service dog. I feel like having unwanted attention may trigger my ptsd. I hate attention it triggers my anxiety because I feel like I’m under a microscope 🤷🏻♀️
As someone who was diagnosed with PTSD at the age of five, I'm sorry that people ask you those things and you have to undergo judgement.
I'm visually impared, I see things floating around my vision which is very distracting and blocks a lot of my vision and I do not have perifual vision. When I tell people this they go stand next to me and say *CAN YOU SEE ME?* (No I can't) or the get obnoxusly close to my face and say *CAN YOU SEE ME NOW* (Yes but get out of my face I can see you when you're are within normal distance from me) It's super weird.
Not really a question, more like a remark. When I was 16, I got badly depressed and most of the few people I told (including my parents) just said "You don't even know what depression is, you're too young to know how hard life can get."
After a while, my parents took me to a shrink and the shrink told them I was actually in a severe depression and needed help and space from them. (I'm fine now tho :D)
"You're dating a guy? So you're straight now?" Nope, still bisexual. "You couldn't have a mental illness, you do (insert thing here)." The best one wasn't even said to me, it was very loudly said near me though. I was called rude for not giving up my seat on public transit to someone older than I was. I had been walking all day on bad feet (birth defect) and was in severe pain; standing the hour to my hometown would have been agony.
I find it so shocking some people still can not grasp the concept of being bisexual. It's so damn weird to me!
Public transit makes me super anxious as someone with an invisible illness. I get extremely dizzy if I stand for long periods so I need a seat, but I don’t feel comfortable asking for one if they’re all taken
My friend told me since I was marrying a guy that I was now straight. I told her nope still bisexual.
Nicole Beauregard does it happen to be POTS? I have to ask. Got my diagnosis today.
Natalie Wierenga yes it is! Did you ‘pass’ the tilt table test? Congrats of the diagnosis, although it Kinda sucks. I’d love to answer questions for you
