The idea of "populating a subconscious memory" is absurd. Your "Subconscious memory is populated by everything that one senses, e.g., hears, sees, smells, tastes, touches, feels, discomfort and pain. Conscious memory is populated by one’s rational thinking." rejects the idea that conscious memory can and does include feelings and emotions.

Welcome to the sexism that is baked into the clothing industry. (Peevish joke: Why can I never find any brassieres in the Men's Department?)

@MizJ The idea of having 15 lbs stuck on the front of my chest somehow does not appeal. I recently asked an acquaintance how she coped with her very significant frontage. Her answer was "Correct posture!".

Betty comments on Nov 28, 2022:

The hatred and arrogance he displays did not manifest itself overnight. He was brought up with it and that makes those who influenced and indoctrinated him just as guilty. Maybe it is time for the laws to be updated to include the co-conspirators, whether that be family and/or the peers he ...

anglophone comments on Nov 27, 2022:

anglophone replies on Nov 27, 2022:

@Pralina1 I do not live in the U$A, so I have no real understanding of what is happening there. Australia's equivalent of the Trump Dumpty brigade has recently received a drubbing by the voters. Those voters have started showing their detestation of arrogance and deception. I can only infer that voters in the U$A fail to see the same thing in their own politicians due to the voters' own fears.

I wasn’t aware of that story, it’s appalling. You can clearly see the bias in this statement… "She had a sickness and she died of it.“ Diabetes, a sickness? Really? It’s like the religious nuts, especially in the UK, who persuade parents that their disabled children can be cured...

anglophone replies on Nov 26, 2022:

@Zealandia Yikes! I have a memory of seeing something like that in recent months, though I don't remember the name. More generally, it makes me wonder how many other exploitative religious organisations worldwide there are that are currently flying under the radar. The Roman Catholic Church flew under the radar with its child exploitation for the best part of a century in Australia.
