Comment on People with bad/no hearing, can you "hear" yourself chewing when you eat?

I’m not deaf, but just in case you don’t get an answer that stems from personal experience:
Your hearing loss in the one ear is (I’m assuming) caused by the ear canal being blocked. Your sensory organ still hears you chewing because the sound is transferred through the bones of your skull to your ear.
A deaf person has a different problem: their sensory organ is damaged or missing, so it doesn’t matter where the sound comes from, they don’t hear it.

Reading this made me wonder if a deaf person could use bone induction headphones to listen to music kinda. But now I’m assuming it’s the same answer given your explanation since the drum would have to vibrate as well

Someone needs to make a vibrator with aux in so you can really feel the music

They make vibration speakers, just print a dildo and use a condom. Prototype done.
