"Well, I've stated that I was quite a few times. Are you trying to remember if you are? At any rate, you're obviously not homosexual since you're anti-gun. "

I thought the only reliable way to discern a mans sexual preference was the decorate-renovate scale (if a man has swatches of fabric lying around "just in case I need to get paint, fabric, etc." vs. number of power tools).

I guess if you've color coordinated your power tools nobody is off limits.

Since the world is apparently populated with psychiatrists (and lawyers, but that's a different discussion - or this one in a page or two), what does Freud say about male ear piercing? Just curious (rather like reading character assessments based on astrological sign - it'll be interesting to see how close to the mark he is).

I'm sure it would have something to do with sex and it would be negative. The secret to understanding Freudians is that everything is about sex and the repression or expression thereof (unless it dealt with himself, e.g. "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." ). Whether or not a certain thing is negative or positive when it is repressed/expressed is a function of the personal bias of that Freudian. IOW, most Freud is a Fraud. Anytime I hear someone talking about phallic symbols or penis envy, it flips the bullsh*t switch in my head and I automatically discount nearly anything they have to say (unless of course _I'm_ the one saying it ))) ).

So your picture of Dogbert with his blantantly erect ears has nothing or everything to do with your feelings about your own sexualty?

(what exactly is he looking at anyway?)

"A newspaper. I never really thought about it further than that, but I suppose it might make an interesting projective drawing interpretation aid. Let's all tell stories about what we think Dogbert is reading that is causing such a reaction. Our answers will then be given to a panel of Freudians who will interpret them and tell us that our answers mean we want to have sex with our mothers."

How do you feel about that?

...and how does that make you feel?

Anybody talks about my mother and sex in the same sentence is going to feel toothless, regardless of how well edumacated he/she is! (I feel that people who will take advice from a stranger on how they should feel about themselves/their lives could probably get more effective advice from reading the lyrics from an old Styx album.)

Are you sure this paragraph is not some cry for help. I think it just shows that you have some supressed feelings about your mother. It's okay. Just admit it
