Sexual Self-Deception

Um. I posted this case-study last night and it appear to be deleted. Are we not allowed to talk about how people's brains deceive them and even to the point that a person might claim rape, while simultaneously be a willing participant?

I'm kind of saddened that the truth cannot be known if it isn't comfortable. Or maybe there is some other reason the thread is gone.

Well, it is here at the last article on this page for those that like truth

    hmmm, i'm thinking a cover involving some ripped douche with long hair blowing in the wind with a shirt that starts being buttoned about 4 down. and some tight pants accentuating the buldge. maybe also throw in a woman resticted by her corset and layers of fabric. slap a cover on this shit and maybe set it in the 1800s and it can go right alongside all of the other trashy piece of shit books out there. because this sure isn't credible science.

    Basically the exact thing described in the article happened with me and my girlfriend as teenagers.

    I agree that there is an aura about the website, maybe it's all the books on neurotheology that are linked on it, but I'm quite confident that the theory is accurate in principle.

    Judging by your review, I'd say you took it personally. Taking into consideration what the article has said. You might be confabulating and in denial now. ;)

    honestly i'm not going to get into this article because i find it *that* ridiculous. and one reason for that is we don't hear from jennifer in this case study. it's all what r. joseph or whateverthedouche says and projects upon the situation. it reads like a trashy book not a case study.

    Are you telling me that ignorance is bliss?

    It is better to not know, even at the expense of others?

    I agree with you, which is why I posted it here, because you all like trashy shit. You pay less attention to actual scientific papers than you do to science fiction.

    i'm saying you need some time off. you spew this babble on every thread day in and day out. you've convinced yourself that someone is listening even though you're bombarded with opposition. from one friend to another; i think you need a vacation.

    I often take a break for one or two days. In fact, almost every weekend. I only typically post on here when I am at work.

    And babble is fact, but I know you will never believe it. Sometime in the future the new paradigm will prevail.

    This is Ahnimus' way of asserting a "Nihilist" viewpoint, whereupon a person's sense of self--the ego, being the person's conscious awareness and choices--has been devalued to the point where it no longer is given any credibility.

    okay i read the story of jennifer. it sounds to me like buyer's remorse. if the incident went down like it says, jennifer has woken up the next day and realised how much she has compromised herself and her parents' respect and expectations of her and called 'rape'.
    but as someone said we don't have jennifer's side of the story, so my interpretation of the event is skewed and biased.

    Where's there any evidence that anything on that webpage is the "truth"?

    Ok, I'll give you that this is bullshit. I did a bit of research on Rhawn Joseph and he is a quack.

    Self-deception is still a reality, regardless whether or not this article is flawed.

    Thank you. Glad you did, and that you are acknowledging the slant. I was starting to worry. :)
    NOPE!!!

    We know. You show us plenty of evidence every day! ;):D

    confabulation and self-deception are still a reality in every human brain. Sexual self-deception still exists beyond a shadow of a doubt.

    I've watched the first 4 lectures in Rhawn Joseph's series of brain anatomy lectures and there are no lies in it that I've noticed. Of course, he's giving the lectures for a class. While he does weird supernaturalism type stuff on the side, and threatens other writers like Susan Blackmore. I don't doubt that his university lectures are on target and he knows a lot about the brain. This article could be 100% accurate. But for the sake of skepticism and face, I'll give that it's probably bullshit.

    Well I hardly think me, the queen of de nile :rolleyes:, would ever argue against you there. ;)

    I guess I'll leave this one alone. Not because I necessarily disagree with you, but more because I'm not sure I trust your interpretations readily. No biggy, I'm quite sure it will have no effect on you whatsoever. :)
