thoughts that everybody thinks.

for most of my life i was convinced that i had all these bizarre thoughts in my head that i was never going to voice because no one would really understand them. does the couch think i'm the one that's not alive? what if god replaced my feet with someone else's feet? etc. and some more unexplainable ones that i won't list because it's hard to put them to words. the point is that i think i was wrong about this and that people really do think retarded shit like that, they just never talk about it. which brings me to the point of this post: human thought processes and emotions are not what we think they are, and you are not different! like the concept of "feminine," which is more than a stereotype. it the way nearly everyone, man or woman, views half of the human race. i really don't beleive that some women are feminine and some aren't--obviously, by the meaning of a word, it incorporates the qualities of all women. strong is feminine. opinionated is feminine. sincere is feminine.

i'm rambling. thesis: we as a species are not honest with eachother about things that are different or perhaps uncomfortable which leads us to have very skewed perceptions of what it means to be a human being.
