I never think of people as "stupid".  I sometimes think that they are lacking intelligence or that they are lacking good judgment, but not "stupid".  I guess that perhaps people who are lacking intelligence do fall under the definition of "stupid", but I find that such a negative word, that I just refuse to use it.

Actually, the term meant "stupid" before it meant "mute".  In ancient times, Aristotle (or maybe it was Socrates, I can't remember) said that the deaf were incapable of cognition (yes I know you are referring to people who are mute not people who are deaf, and yes I know that there are more hearing-mutes than deaf-mutes.  I'm getting there).  Of course, back they didn't have the therapies or technology that we have, so someone who was deaf probably was mute for lack of someone to teach them oral language.  Any attempts to speak wouldn't have been understood and so even without being mute in the sense of lacking the capability for speech, they lacked an intelligable language, which Aristotle (or Socrates) said was the foundation for mental thought, so therefore the deaf were incabable of thinking.\n\nOf course as time went on, people realized that this wasn't true, and sign languages started to develop (although not til fairly late in history).  Once it was seen that deaf and mute people had the capacity for language, the term dumb transformed to mean "mute".  Unfortunately the original meaning of "stupid" did not disappear with the evolution of the word.\n\nNow the terms "deaf and dumb" and "deaf mute" are clearly offensive to the deaf community because a vast majority are not mute, and because of the derrogatory nature of that word.  As far as those who are truly mute, they don't see the use of the word "dumb" meaning "stupid" to be insulting, but the use of the word "dumb" to mean "mute" is insulting.  Mute people are not stupid, but they refer to themselves as mute, not dumb, because the true definition of dumb IS "stupid".\n\nI hope that makes sense.

My friend, there is an old saying: People are stupid.  In fact, I believe that this may answer just about every question on this site.

Dum (dumb) is the inability to think, reason, or to fully comprehend a situation.  Since  humans in general can do all 3 or any of the three, they are not considered dumb, and should never be referred to as such.  Animals are dumb,  Human animals are stupid, do stupid things.  Never refer to yourself or another human being as dumb.  This is a this is an example of stupid.

Stupid means mentally slow and because it would be hard to get replies from them ,a cat scan may show the brain waves and this may show the least amount of activity.It would be someone unable to understand this or react to this in any form . There's many people you can't hurt by asking this.The word is no longer used for mentally ill , yet the dictionary holds as this term .Today stupid would be doing something that we knew better than to do in the First place.
