Battle of the Sexes big time

Are Men Opportunistic In Relationships?

2011-02-17T13:23:00.000-08:00

Men are by nature hunters and worriers. That means they need to be more indifferent to animals and others. Testosterone does this. They must be able to seize the moment of the hunt or kill. When this bleeds over to relationships they can be devastating to the female need to nurture. It takes a sophisticated
man to hold back the urge to be opportunistic in a relationship, usually taught by their mothers when they are young. Frank does not meet the qualifications. Rosy gets frustrated. In time she will learn better methods. But Frank can read her intentions. Enjoy the cartoon.

Rosy's Personality is very different than Frank's

2009-10-30T19:07:00.000-07:00

As you can see Rosey's Personality as shown in her brain is very different from Frank's Personality and brain. Rosey is typical of females but much more to the extreme on femaleness. Frank is very typical of maleness but again on the extreme. Woman and girls tend to operate a bit more from the upper nature than men and boys more a bit more in the lower nature. Girls tend to put love in the center and observe people and boys observe things and can be more mischievious and self centered. The difference may not be very great but can be exaggerated when life experiences teach us to elaborate on the differences. It can go the other way too, where guys are more loving and gals more mischievious but Rosy and Frank are the first not the latter. Lets see how this plays out in a situation. The next post will be a cartoon.

Consciousness, Men and Woman are Different

2009-10-29T18:53:00.001-07:00

Consciousness is a lot like memory. Our brain perceives, feels, thinks, and gets us to act and do things we are not always conscious of, as when we drive. We call it subconscious. It is habits of doing, thinking, feeling, and perceiving some things and ignoring other things, feelings, thoughts, and actions. But it is even more. Our brains work faster than we are aware of. Woman's subconscious can be very different from men's subconscious due to biological differences (woman respond longer to faces and voices even at birth), emotional differences (woman and men are raised differently), social differences (social norms and expectations are different for men and woman), and action differences (woman prefer different tasks such as homemaker and men love to hunt more). These differences can lead to a pleasant contrast and blending or to the battle of the sexes.

Sorry, I said I would look at normal again and them meet Rosy and Frank. I will do that now.

Psychotoons Battle of the Sexes Big Time

2009-10-24T21:29:00.000-07:00

This is a blog about the battle of the sexes from a biological, social, belief, and activity perspective. It is based on the four basic personality factors of biological, family or emotional, beliefs, and habits and activities. My blog Psychotoons.blogspot.com helps to explain these personalities.

There are basic personality differences, emotional differences, belief differences, and behavioral differences between the sexes that set up areas of conflict between the sexes. I will go over the basic differences in all the four areas and the type of conflicts that occur from a personality or psychological perspective. But I want to do this in a simple and visual way, to make psychology easy and fun. You may want to look at psychotoons.blogspot.com to get a head start on the visual view of personality. Another helpful site is psychotoons.com. Be sure and go to the bottom right corner of any of the pages and click on the fun stuff.

The Widgets of Our Lower Nature

2009-09-02T12:20:00.000-07:00

Dragon runs our Lower Nature. Dragon has four widgets for the four steps or stages of the brain. Spidie deceives Ant and Bee so we do not perceive correctly.

Raccoon is not fearful or loving but is very greedy. What is his is theirs and what is yours is theirs.

Crow flies around but looks for excuses and justifications. He just does not ever see a big enough picture to forgive or share.

Coyote is the energy, he grabs. steals, and bullies.

In survival mode these five take over and have a party of destruction.
The next post will look at normal again then we will meet Rosy and Frank in the battle of the sexes.

The Widgets of Our Upper Nature

2009-09-02T08:22:00.000-07:00

(See previous two posts for background)

The widgets are the little guys or gals that help Mr. Do or Dragon navigate in the world. The brain goes through steps or stages in processing the world. First we have to perceive the world. Ant sees detail and Bee can fly around and see more of the patterns. That takes up the back of the brain and near the ears.

Next we must decide to approach, or love, what we see or fear it and avoid it. Cuddles the loving dog and scarty cat Macho dwell in the middle of the brain.

Next Geru the bird can fly and gather more information and from that plan what to do. That takes the frontal lobes.

Lastly we will go ahead and act on the situation. Mr. Do operates the body but must have energy, so we have Rabbit. But at times Rabbit needs to slow down so Turtle will help out.

This cycle is repeated over and over. If we are Obsessive Compulsive the cycle is very very strong and insistent.

The Next Blog will cover our Lower Nature Widgets

The Key to key ideas.

2009-08-27T10:42:00.000-07:00

(See previous post)

There it is, my key. Don't let it boggle your mind, I will explain it. Our lower nature is our inborn selfish or self centered instincts. Our upper nature is the inborn altruistic or help others, even sacrifice self for others, instincts. Natures ultimate goal is to preserve the species or life in general, so it is survival of the fittest group capable of carrying on life in general. It is not survival of the biggest bully, but survival of the group.

The upper nature is ran by Mr. Do. He is the upper part of the brain that runs our bodies. That is unless Dragon from the lower nature does not rush in from the survival mode. If we are in a dangerous situation the Survival mode is the instinct to save us. First we Freeze and assess the situation, next we will Flight or get out of harms way, if trapped we will Fight, lie, cheat, steal, or even kill to survive. If it is activated or let loose without real danger it can cause lots of unnecessary drama and pain to self and others. Dragon is aggressive and will try to take over. Remember Dragon is selfish.

The Next Post will explain the widgets that help Mr. Do and Dragon.

What It Is About

2009-08-27T10:01:00.000-07:00

This series of blogs is about human nature in general, more specifically how personality works to affect individuals, family, groups, and nations. This particular blog is about how beliefs and groups can affect how we treat each othr, in particular the different sexes. I want to make psychology easier for those who have not already slaved over psych books. So I have used cartoons to represent key ideas. A review of these can be found in my web site Psychotoons.com. They are not the traditional jargon of past writers but the ideas are still there. I want this endeavor to be fun for me and you. Post comments or questions and I will review them. If you do not want them published please tell me so. The next post is the key to the key concepts. Remember, I will make it simple as it should be for adults and children.
