Oh but they do hang down together like a pair of culottes, having the appearance of a single scrotum when standing up. They're just separated for illustration purposes.

Hi NotFred,
Interesting to hear something about your life. I didn't know anything about your life before.

I was thinking that myself actually, but he seems to be opening up since starting Lamictal. This has a revelatory thread I feel.

Is Lamictal that good?
I had no idea.

I meant to say: "This has been a revelatory thread I feel".
But yes, I had a good response to it for two years where it at least kept me rock solid stable, if a little befuddled.

Okay, I've taken the hint from some here that my feminine side may be happier if I was living as a woman. It's an interesting idea so I thought I might put it to the test.

It feels wrong. I just posted to FredPotter as a woman, and felt like a stranger to myself. After only an hour I find myself reaching instinctively for my 'al' only for hand to snatch at empty space. It's strange and disturbing. I am definitely not transgendered.
I have made a request for the good doctor to reverse it. I'm going to bed now and hopefully when I wake this will all be over.

No, but perhaps YOU would feel more comfortable...

on your intellectualizations that prompt
responses from the board population, but is
that LIFE? Seems rather sad to me.But hey, that's just my humble opinion. Do whatever

That would carry more weight if you weren't a regular contributor to this thread yourself.
It disappoints me when people try to discourage others from posting on topics they find unnerving with derisive name calling like this. One thing I've never done upon reading a post I consider truly sad, rambling or boring is to fire off an irate response pleading for the person to stop posting, not on a message board when I can click on the little x in the top right corner of the screen and move on to a thread I find more interesting.

This excursion into the polymorphous perverse does not seem to have pleased everybody.
Well, no surprises there.

It's also a statistical fact that most people are heterosexual, for what that's worth.
it is a statistical fact that most people "self define" as heterosexual.
we do not live in a society that encourages exploration of our sexuality. We are supposed to watch more TV and forget any meaningful longings.

Hello Mr K
Polymorphous perverse was Freud's desciption of infant sexuality. (I think).
I've not read much of the man himself.

And it must mean 'taking many forms' and 'with no regard for established norms'.
Perhaps he meant this about our initial natures?

by "self defined" i mean that people said "oh, i'm straight" to some question. were likely not asked about their sexual history or fantasies.

Hello Mr. Declan,
You mean that our initial natures are polymorphous perverse because we have not yet learnt what is socially accepted as normal?

It might have something to do with how we love in our lives. As soon as we are born (and for all I know before) we start to love. The pattern the love takes in early childhood will be recreated in varying formulations in an effort to feel freedom and enjoyment in sexual relations later in life. That's my version, as good as I can think at the moment.
It probably has bugger all to do with Freud.> Hello Mr. Declan,

Please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused.
But please don't take this personally, either, this doesn't mean I don't like you or think you're a bad person.
If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please first see the FAQ:
