Piaget Vs Men

Ah, child psychology, you cant beat it.  Millions of poor little kiddies forced into doing things they don't want to coz some old french guy said that it was a good idea.

Piaget reckoned that there were several stages of childhood, the earliest being sensorimotor during the first two years.

During the sensorimotor period the child has several characteristics:-

1) No concept of object permenance (take away a teddy they assume it's dissapeared)
2) Can't classify (can't tell the difference between one catergory and another)
3) Not capable of abstract thought
4) Egocentric (can only see things from their own point of view)

All this is meant to change when they hit the pre-operatioal stage age three.  I have groundbreaking new evidence, nowever, that it DOESN'T in certain cases.

Men are still stuck in the sensorimotor stage, which explains a great deal about their behaviour.  Your average man exhibits:-

1) No concept of object permenance (you hide the remote control, they assume it has dissapeared )
2) Can't classify (unable to tell the difference between a nice girl and a hooker)
3) Not capable of abstract thought (not even when drinking beer)
4) Egocentric (duh)

Very worrying.  Should we put men in playpens and give them bouncy balls?  Either way it makes your other half suddenly a lot easier to handle.... (just give them a bottle (admittedly of beer) and take them to bed and they are generally fairly content)

PS nice to be back people

The big problem is that this means that their blood is all used up on their brains and they'll be unable to reproduce and whatnot.

By the way a hooker is a woman who will have sex with you in exchange for money.  I can't think of a nicer thing she could possibly do except to do it for free.  Hooker == nice girl.

What if you are a man but not a steroetypical man, as described in the first post here. I'll take my own psyche as an example, since I have been slightly conditioned in order to perform better on the test.

1) No concept of object permenance.
People often hide the remote control or simply put it on a place where I do not expect it to be. I realize that men have tunnel vision and there is nothing you can do about it. It's just how nature works and men are no less for it. Sometimes, the higher degree of focus is more useful than the broad-spectrum female focus, depending on the situation. When applying it to the remote control problem, it takes me a little longer than the female members of the family to find the remote control, but I will find it. The whole point is that I search for it until I find it, or if I don't want to, ask where it is. I do not simply assume that it is gone. I only state that it is gone from the place where I assumed it to be.

2) Can't classify.
The example is not really applicable because I have never been close to a hooker, but I think that I would be able to distinguish the difference. The whole thing just depends on how you make your defenitions. Bort already explained that most men would just put the two under the same category. The two may for women (BTW, for me too) be in a different category, but if men decide that there is too little actual difference to divide them, then that is their point of view. And now they are suddenly babies for it (who's being egocentric now, see point 4).

3) Not capable of abstract thought.
First of all, I absolutely detest beer. Second of all, excuse me! 95% of the discussions that I have and thoughts that wonder through my mind are about concepts that are not physical in nature. I cannot speak for the rest of the human male race, but I thought that I do not fit that criterea. Consider this an act of self-defense.

4) Egocentric.
Show me a human being (hereby defined as both males and females) that is not egocentric and will make observations and judgements completely from a neutral point of view. If you show me someone who fits that description, I will shoot that person on the spot, because it must be an alien. Everyone, and that includes females, is egocentric and men no more than women. I am egocentric and I am proud to say that I am egocentric. At least, that indicates that I am a human being.


Hopefully, I eliminated some of the assumptions of female superiority. Again, I cannot speak for my entire gender, but I will not except this judgement. If you insist on putting me in the playpen, I will insist that you join me, for you have no more or less qualifications of being there.


And by the way,
I am to new to have known you, but I read some of your posts. Some more quality here is always welcome.

If breastfeeding is included in this package deal, then I vote YES.  duh...

Welcome back, Miss Cat

p.s. - some hookers can be categorized as very nice girls.

To solve the hooker vs nice lady problem...

Judging people by their job is just WRONG. Many girls become hookers against their free will. Do you think those girls (who are hookers, but never wanted to be) don't care about other people at all? Do you think they aren't nice to anyone?

And thus I have proven to you, that a hooker may be a nice lady.

Those are just synonyms. The only difference between "hooker" and "*****" is that it's considered rude by many to use the later.

Um, you listed the following words:

Isn't it obvious that "*****" is one of them?

The other side of the mirror

1) No concept of object permenance (missplace a pair of shoes they'll assume it's disappeared, run to the store and by a whole new wardrobe to match their new shoes)

2) Can't classify (can't tell the difference between men, and I quote: "All men are pigs, sister, pigs!!! Hey you there! Yeah you, are you a man? Then you're a pig!!! Cursed pigs!!!)

3) Not capable of abstract thought (Once they're hooked to a soap opera, they'll never ever ask themselves if there is any bloody logic in those things)

4) Egocentric ("Why are you late? You've been hanging out with the guys after work again, huh? And I've been sitting all day at home while you were at work!" And maybe I should underline HOME as opposed to WORK)
