With Halloween only weeks away, it’s time to start writing scarier articles, though every article is scary when you read some of the folks that populate my comment section 🙂
Speaking of psychos, as a kid not much scared me more than the Psycho movies. I didn’t even know what they were about but seeing the images in the video stores was enough to keep me up at night. Not the original Psycho, but the sequels, because after 22 years in the mental hospital, an older, greyer Norman Bates was creepier than ever.
I think my favorite is Psycho III, where some reporter is snooping through Norman’s house, and out of the darkness comes Norman, but dressed up like his mother, saying: “why don’t you leave my poor son Norman alone?”
What made this scene so powerful is that even though he was dressed and speaking like a little old lady, he had the height and body build of a full-grown man, and that juxtaposition was true horror. Watch the full scene here:
It’s not a coincidence that a psychotic like Norman Bates chose to dress up like a woman. Just as Hans Asperger argued that Asperger’s syndrome was an extreme form of the male brain, scientists Crespi and Badcock argue that psychosis is extreme female brain, and one piece of evidence they use is that the psychotic population includes a lot of men who transition into women, while the autistic population includes a lot of women who transition into men.
So if autistic women want to be men, what do autistic men want to be? Macho men? Someone should do a study to see if autism is more common among extreme body builders. Of course that doesn’t fit well with the theory that autism is an extreme form of nerdiness, but perhaps that theory is wrong.
Crespi and Badcock argue that on many different variables, psychotics and autistics are at opposite extremes, with neurotypicals in the middle. Because this reminded me of J.P. Rushton’s controversial theory that on many different traits, Negroids and Mongoloids are at opposite extremes with Caucasoids in the middle, I suggested back in 2014 that perhaps Negroids might be more at risk for psychosis and Mongoloids might be more at risk for autism, however Rushton claimed Blacks have the most testosterone and East Asians have the least, which should predict Blacks would be the most autistic, according to the extreme male brain theory.
what a cutie article, with a beautiful smiley face to give it that polished touch
AIDS. anthony perkins. sad!
Cutie! Sad! Great responses guys!
Great!
Concerning extreme Male and extreme Female brain.
Men are more spatial and women are more verbal.
This can be explained by white matter tracts.
Spatial is front to back, Verbal is side to side.
Women are more intuitive because of the ability to detect infection and therefore emotion. Men understand how objects fit together and navigation.
Attentiveness in what makes the difference between the sexes. When you are pregnant and give birth, what you pay attention to is based on the whole evolutionary history of the species. Babies learn to speak and see faces from the mother.
There is something missing from an autistic person where they are unable to understand people. They unintentionally ignore person hidden motivations and tend not to observe people in general. Men are more things oriented. Woman understand people.
Interesting. Do you think men or women are more likely to be deceived, given women’s people orientation?
In my opinion [i know, sorry, i’m being intrusive here], because women tend to have higher hearing sensitivity [as well men with this attribute] they tend to specially vulnerable to social conformity.
That typo: women is likely to believe on what they hear than on what they see.
New leftism/gramcism is a good example.
Badcock wrote an article that aspergers is actually androgyny you clown. I linked to it 2 weeks ago.
Found the article you must be talking about.
https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-imprinted-brain/201410/the-x-factor-explains-androgyny-in-male-asperger-s
It’s a new theory he’s speculating about on his own, not the one he created with Crespi
”I linked to it 2 weeks ago.”
You**
Kind of sad that perkins did all these sequels. I didn’t know he did that. Usually none of the original cast do the home video sequels. He should have won the oscar for the first one in my opinion.
only movie i’ve seen him in was Black Hole. never seen Psycho, just snippets. but i got lots of laughs by doing the Pyscho shower scene music in middle school.
clebrities spend their money like drunken sailors, and they get ripped off.
A lot of trans are autist, hoe explain them?
A lot of men trans
Autists have highest test levels??
I think so, and the high T may also explain the explosive anger we see among autistics in my comment section:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/25617877/
Pumpkins violent temper is legendary.
It’s don’t work for me because what i already told here i have lower testosterone levels, namely the active one.
Seems for men lower or higher active testosterone may have similar results but by different vias.
Recently I read in Crespi and Badcock section on psychological today that autists generally don’t have hearing hallucinations as schizophrenics. I believe men tend to have better sight than women that tend to have better hearing than men. So men, namely typical ones, tend to be more oriented by their sight than by their hearing confabulating with their better spatial skills as well relatively lower social/hearing skills. On other hand women tend to be more sensitive to what they hear and no doubt human voices are the most familiar thing humans hear during their lives. It’s aos can be or not related with their relatively better verbal skills, internalizing with more precision the conventionally correct orthographic and grammatical ways to write. Better hearers are better listeners. In this aspect psychopathy look very feminine because psychopaths tend to have great hearing sensitivity but not in receptive way. Psychopaths are “superb” listeners as well very talented merchants. The same for lower self esteem and paranoid people but with greater receptive and defensive interpersonal empathizing. I divided empathy in many ways: Intrapersonal, interpersonal and impersonal; intra/interpersonally receptive, defensive and aggressive. Yes empathy is not just put in the place of other PEOPLE and feel compassion for them it’s a over developed concept with a lot of pre condition about how it’s must be but not. When two men are fighting one each other they are using their aggressive empathetic approaches to predict and anticipate to the movements of other. It’s empathy too but it’s not receptive ones. Fall in love with some knowledge is also empathy, “impersonal” type, like the weather it’s also empathy. Indeed we are all the time putting ourselves in other perspectives trying to figure out how or what “they” are behaving or what they are. Empathy is this living being self projection via senses to their outer reality trying to understand it to fit with it, survive, adapt and perpetuates.
From the dichotomy of Autism and Schizophrenia.
East Asian are visual,
Japan animation is incredible because of visual intelligence.
Blacks are more than proficient in music.
They have enhanced hearing for rhythm.
Whites are in between with Auditory and Visual intelligence.
Interesting.
Gypsies are also very good listerners to…. we know.
I am transracist. I was a non racist and I decided to transition into becoming a racist because we need more diversity.
yes. pill gets it. this is the secret. bannon and sailer get it. use the enemy’s language against it.
Trumps defense of the ‘dreamers’ was stomach churning. Lets hope it was just politics. Theres rumours hell give amnesty to ‘dreamers’ (yo no soy more coolies for the jews)….in return for crap basically.
Trump reneges on the wall its over.
No more off topic comments please. It just attracts low grade people. If you must discuss Trump please find an article about Trump in the archives and discuss it there.
what low grade people peepee?
no one ever comments on the topic, because the topic is always low grade.
pill and i are the only reason anyone reads this blog.
here’s another off topic comment: my dad is gonna die in a little while just like his brother, but hereditary ataxias usually strike much earlier in life. all of the symptoms can also be produced by organic mercury poisoning or mad cow disease. both dying from the same thing can’t be a coincidence. so it’s either genetic and recessive (neither grandparent had the problem) or it’s poisoning or it’s mad cow. the doctors have no clue. pathetic. as far as i know the third child, the sister, has no issues. maybe she poisoned her two brothers.
Ian Mugabe is not just a fraud and a secret homo but also possibly delusional with his supposed popularity and still he can be exceptionally insensible with commenters here. What a loser!! He is boring as hell. But his self propaganda work well for impressionable ones, that type of people he explicitly despise.
the topic is pseudo-scientific garbage and i only come to see interesting opinions from clever/eccentric people
Hahaha! Another Trump-worshipper bites the dust!
It turns out Trump has no beliefs. He’s the very definition of nihilism.
Sounds like high IQ chuck schumer adapted the situation to his advantage by manipulating Trump
Chuck Schumer’s a banal witless political animal who got his scores through gaming the test.
He might be smart, but watching him speak in public with no skill is the clearest indication that he doesn’t possess the quick wits that mark a truly excellent verbal intelligence.
Contrast to Enoch Powell, a truly monstrous intelligence, hamstrung only by his sense of duty.
Enoch Powell must be the most intelligent politician I can think of in the 20th century. Its good that he was a good guy and used it for good.

PP, controlling for IQ what are the income differences among ethnic groups in the US ?
They did an interesting analysis in the book The Bell Curve. Apparently when you look at whites and blacks both with the same IQ, there’s virtually no difference in wages, but blacks are still more likely to be in poverty or in jail. But when you control for IQ, blacks are far more likely to be in a high IQ occupation. Meanwhile calculations both Mug of Pee and I have done suggest Jews are far more likely to be super rich, even controlling for IQ.
All of the above is in the U.S.. There could be different trends in different countries.
https://spectrumnews.org/opinion/linking-autism-sex-gender-and-prenatal-hormones/
“Earlier this year, my colleagues and I tested this by looking at hormone levels in samples of amniotic fluid from 128 boys later diagnosed with autism and 217 controls. We found that, indeed, samples from the boys with autism show elevated levels of testosterone, along with other hormones that are part of the so-called delta-4 sex steroid pathway”

Thanks for the link
No problem. [redacted by pp sept 18, 2017] If you xdon’t mind me asking..
One of them lacked focus and the other couldn’t get along with other commenters
Yeah, but now [redacted by pp, sept 18, 2017]
socialism is good for rich people too. now will peepee admit that the american elite is stupid?
Harald Eia has done one of the greatest docs of all time in his native language talking about how most social justice social engineering stuff ruins peoples lives once they try it. I think its called ‘brainwashing’.
yes! because the so-called “sjw” is just a useful idiot…
a useful idiot of the 0.1%.
the bolsheviks were NOT sjws. NOT!
and neither was marx.
ray dalio (gentile italian american) said the other day that 0.2% of americans have more wealth than the bottom 90% of americans. bernie claimed it was 0.1%.
not much of a difference.
so it should be obvious, even to peepee, that this is a class divide.
in the US the 0.1% is ca $30m.
the same cutoff that the above norwegian uses.
yes! because the so-called “sjw” is just a useful idiot…
a useful idiot of the 0.1%.
Both you and pill believe SJWs are useful idiots, but at least here you imply they are being used to advance the economic interests of the rich, while pill consistently argues they’re being used to advance ethnic genetic interests.
there are two “left” ideologies. one fake. one genuine.
the sjws take the phony first, the useful idiot first.
good people take the second.
the first: all inequality is due to discrimination against a small set of groups. that is, these groups may not be small, but the number of groups is small. examples of these groups are blacks, homosexuals, women, etc.
thus the groups are the focus, rather than discrimination per se.
the second: whatever the causes of inequality, inequality can only be reduced by taxes and transfers.
the first is the phony left.
the second is the genuine left.
the first has no compassion for poor white heterosexual trash. bill maher uses them as a punch line.
the second does…even if they don’t want them as friends or neighbors.
ian its far more likely the avg american simply has a lower genetic IQ than tthe avg Scandie.
Seems like the whole pick up artist community has gone alt right. I temember heartiste was blogging aboit politics first i think. Rollo tommassi says a lot of ibteresting things about psychology which are true but not always mpirically backed, but are true. He ex0lains why muslim women wear burkhas.
Deal with it wears a burkha ‘in solidarity’ with her fellow social justic warriors.
No man wants to find out their son is gay. Think of how you would feel if youre father came out of the closet.
Many men would be ashamed.
Why do they feel shame about somethig thats ‘genetic’? Notice the way nobody feels ashamed of retarded, aspy or down syndrome kids?
Because thebalgorithm is trying to instruct them to correct it or mascukinise the response to the change.
Life is imperfect, one of the first lesson MATURE people have about it is:
perfection is near to be impossible, so to be tolerant with some charge of disorders is not just recommendable but ABSOLUTELY inescapable.
Any try to reach ”perfection” will be failed because it’s just deny the fundamental nature of life and of existence itself, universe is imperfect, it was born from imperfection and the final destiny of everything is to hold in any possibility of balance but still ”knowing” that the imperfection of existence is intractable.
There a spectrum of different types of disorders, different categories of disorders, from the ”perfect” balance to the real/literal disease.
”Men” are responsible for most of human conflicts, i thought ”men” are not in confortable position to ask many things.
What humans can do, start from the moment they start to follow REAL philosophy would be to minimize as possible the severe disorders that usually threat us and ”our” interaction with the terrestrial environment, and yes, real toxic masculinity is one of them.
Bear in mind that
toxic masculinity and increasing of intelligence, specially of creativity, is mutually excludent.
Higher would be the self awareness, more responsibility, more the power to destruction.
What’s matter after all is the hyper-existencial relationship among vital elements, at priori.
Interestingly you forget one of the most impairable mental disorders of all, schizophrenia. What do you think about schizophrenia* Are you proud to be full blown schizopher*
If he bothered to research anything he would know that homosexuality is possibly epigenetic in origin plus even other animals do it in the butt. Seriously how stupid could someone be? [redacted by pp, sept 18, 2017]
https://www.google.com/amp/s/hornetapp.com/stories/gay-gene-explanation/amp/
Homosexuality is a expected result when we have variation of sexually related traits in selective events as well many other traits and phenotypes that cannot be explained at the light of evolutionary approach or at least by direct selection.
What is epigenetic for you?? Seems it’s just a different name to mutations.
If im right gay conversion therapy works but not by religion or chanting. Or even pavlonian conditioing.
It would work by changing the neuro chemistry – hard labour or millitary action would work.
homosexuality is bourgeois decadence, like modern art. when people have to focus their attention on survival their minds don’t have any room left for such desires/interests.
there are 200k east and west pakis in ontario. most of them are gay. yet these countries have high birth rates.
hard labor, military action, and therapy would just reinforce gayness.
pill can’t tell the difference between the man made and nature. sad!
Different ”macro-properties” of intelligence
creativity = intelligence’s deepthness
intelligence/IQ = intelligence’s size
wisdom = intelligence’s constancy
santa claus = word salad.
santa claus in portuguese = word salad.
sad!
Only in your ass mentally challenged pseudo genius 😉
Im learning how to trade gold options and futures (significantly easier) the gold market is 100 times easier to track in terms of trends than the stock market. Anyway does anyone have any expertise on options and futures in general, the market lingo is like deciphering a different language. G man can you tutor me on these please?
if you’re a real person you have the advantage of not having been brainwashed like pill and me.
pill and i will both agree that the only way to make money in futures and options is…
luck…
or cray super computers.

but good luck. it’s a zero sum game. you win. someone else loses.
the one futures floor trader i knew gave it up to be an actuary.
he sucked at trading apparently.
he traded index futures on the NYMEX.
i asked him, “you’re mathematically sophisticated…???”
he responded, “the guys making big money have 3d grade educations.”
or rather, bad luck. gambling should be illegal. the only reason futures trading is legal in the US is that it serves to spread risk. it has an insurance function.
if you’re dealing in gold then trading gold futures has a genuine economic purpose.
btw, i’m not against an absurd wealth gap per se, BUT…
i am for…
the rich being competent managers of their wealth.
to whom much is given, much is expected.
the industrial revolution has made its own lords.
the useful idiot “left” vs the genuine left…
you see someone or must interact with someone who is disgusting, genuinely disgusting.
the fake left ignores this experience or thinks…
the reason this person is disgusting is that this person is disgusting.
the genuine left thinks…
why are there such people at all?
the fake left is self-contradictory.
it’s a bud on the body of the ruling class.
A useful idiot talking about useful idiots
That same guy who criticize French and (((French))) philosophy by irs lack of depth is the same who worship the fake philosopher Heidegger. He even know how that no have difference among them. What a….
michael milken claimed that he was targeted for his “democritization of capital”.
by this he meant that more capitalists had access to capital raised by wall street.
“democritization of capital” really mean that what the owning class owns, which exceeds what the bottom 90% owns, and is much more than anyone could possibly need…
this property will be managed by the 99%.
rather than by the 0.1%.
the problem with this is that the ownership interest of the voter is nil. his share is too small.
or is it?
large public companies have millions of shareholders. few have any power. when they are displeased with the management they sell their shares. their vote for the board of directors has no weight.
…really means that what…
the answer is: the problem is one of political organization, not politics.
I remember I did well in school but no adult ever paid attention to me.
I have been meditating more because meds do not seem to work.
It is reducing my mental and emotional pain and getting in touch with my body.
The other side of town is much nicer but my mom helped me find a house I could afford.
I buy fruit shakes at the groceries store because it is easier and tastier than real fruit.
Everyone in my family is on food stamps or SSI.
It is interesting to learn about class structure.

This stunning music have more philosophy than entire senseless Heideggerian verbolatry.
If someone could explain me with your OWN words….
As a director Perkins had a gift for finding promising young actors and Fahey was the greatest thing about Psycho III.
Also, Perkins nailed that white trash vibe that stinks around the motel byways of old highways in the Southwest with out overdoing it the way BATES MOTEL did.
Hitchcock’s original felt shot on a soundstage and the first sequel was a disaster but the third one really summed up the actual environ that might have belonged to Bates.
