Everyone knows Freud was looney. How else could he believe the stuff he pushed? lol! And he truly did believe it.

His Oedipal theory was def derived from his own experience, particularly the one he writes about where he saw his mother naked when he was very young, and I guess desired her sexually. Freud really made no secret about the personal roots of his theory. He published it himself, in fact! He just failed to recognize that perhaps what was true for him was NOT "normal" or true for EVERYONE! lol

I wasn't arguing that he wan't "one of us" as someone said he was. (And lol! to that!!!) I was just pointing out that the cocaine thing is NOT in any way evidence of that, if you look at it in a cultural context. Besides, there is much better evidence than that. Freud did a LOT of jacked up things! (What was the client whose nose they broke or something to cure her sexual issues? I'll have to look that up again!-- Don't worry, just for my own reading. I won't bore you all with it here! lol)

But I don't want to get all "theoretical" lol. Just having a good laugh at old "Sigi"
