I honestly couldn't say, and couldn't care less, unless I have some kind of rights to a castle in Ireland or some sh*t like that. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

MrFreefall383 0 #6 October 20, 2007 Everyone's got a little friggin' Irish in 'em. But yes, I'm a quarter Irish. Still burn in the sun like an Irishman though. And Freud was absolutely right.

ACMESkydiver 0 #11 October 20, 2007 Quote Ummmm..... Freud had issues. BIG issues. He had a thing for his mom. >shudderAnyhow, with a statement like that, I'm sure you've read some of his theories on dream symbolism? If you dream of a cup...it's a woman's breast. I knife...a penis. Pots and pans...women's breasts. Sword or a bat....penis. -According to Freud, everything we dream about symbolizes our naughty bits. Lemme see if I can find a link...it's good reading. A-HA!!! Here we go: Quote Number three has in dreams symbolic meaning of man's sexual organ. All dream ideas which consist of three parts can mean the man's sexual organ. Phallus is symbolically substituted with all things that are similar to it by their form, namely long things that jut out: mountains, rocks, sticks, umbrellas, poles, trees... Then objects for which the penetration in the body and harming is characteristic - weapons: knifes, daggers, lances, sabres, swords... and fire arms: guns, rifles, revolvers, cannons... Obviously, the phallus is also substituted with objects from which water runs: pipes, watering-pots, fountains... and with objects that can be lengthened: hanging lights, extensible pens, aerials... Balloons, airplanes, helicopters, rockets, etc. are symbols of erection. Less evident male sexual symbols are reptiles and fish, especially a symbol of snake. A hat and a coat as well as various machines and appliances have the same meaning. Female genitalia are symbolically represented with hollow objects that can contain things: shafts, pits and caves, vessels and bottles, boxes, suitcases, tins, pockets, closets, stoves, ships... The same holds for house with entrances, passages and doors, churches, chapels, castles, mansions, fortresses and even landscape itself. The material such as wood and paper as well as objects made of them: a table, a book... symbolize the same. Typical female symbols among animals are snails and mussels and their shells. Apples, peaches and fruits in general symbolize breasts. All kind of playing (playing instruments also), sliding, slipping and breaking branches are symbols of masturbation. The teeth falling out and extraction of them are symbols of castration as a punishment for masturbating (castration's complex). Various rhythmical activities such as dance, riding, raising and threatening with weapon symbolize sexual intercourse itself. Typical activities that symbolize sexual intercourse are also climbing and going down the ladder or stairs and running inside a house. The queen and king or empress and emperor and similar relations symbolize parents. The fall into water or raising out of it symbolizes birth. That's quoted from this link: http://library.thinkquest.org/C005545/english/dream/freud.htm -Hey, not bad! I said that stuff about cups and knives from memory of an advanced psych class some...hmm, 18 years ago? Not bad for the ol' memory! (but don't ask me what I ate for breakfast...) -And accordign to Freud, I'm stuck in the 'oral' stage, which leads to all of the problems manifested in my life. -anyone else stuck in the oral stage?? (smokers, gum chewers, over weight, toothpick chewers, coffee drinkers, alcoholics...etc)We just have to have something in our mouths all the dang time. How did we end up on Freud from an Irish thread? ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
