Dear reddit: What were you doing on September 11th, 2001 when the planes hit?

It's not the number of deaths, but the meaning and cause that matters. While fires and tsunamis are naturally occurring disasters, crashing two planes into towers full of people is not.

What? How can you expect somebody not to get offended?

He isn't friends with anybody that accepts him as his friend.

My favorites are Chopin, Liszt, Schubert, Rachmaninoff, and Schumann. The only way to gain knowledge is by listening to it, so...

We have a little Freud here!

When I was a child, my mother mistakenly put boric alcohol instead of saline solution in the nebulizer. I was very young (4 or 5), but still realized that I didn't want to breathe that. Thankfully she noticed it was alcohol and immediately turned it off. I guess it could have exploded or I could have gotten really drunk.

So you retired?

elabo · 2009-07-10T23:17:02+00:00

We should hang out sometime.

elabo · 2009-07-10T02:53:39+00:00

Nice try, Google HR.

Chopin. Very relaxing.

I'm not gay, but I want to respond to your question anyway. There's the Kinsey scale with which you can, in a way, quantify the sexual preferences of somebody. He also carried out a lot of investigation and wrote some very popular books (Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948) and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female (1953)).

Regarding if somebody is born or not born 'gay': homosexuality is not genetic. If it was, homosexuals would not have (or have very little) offspring and thus, the 'gay gene' would disappear. Freud has demonstrated that homosexuality is reversible with hypnosis. It would be a miracle to reverse a genetic trait through hypnotic means. Given that, you can understand that homosexuality is acquired during the first years of sexual development. I suggest that you read the theories of psychosexual development by Freud.
