As the week has progressed though I have been finding it a very useful tool for communication, and think we will probably continue to use it for this purpose. I have found out quite a bit this week from the videos. I don't know why we never thought to use this before.

Its very devestating to most of us....we just cant remember what we really look like. We just know how we feel, so visual just sends us into immediate devastation- dissociation, depression, s.h.,
Of course, the guys kinda don't care, but the fems and teens are very hurt.
We just can't handle a dose of reality....it makes us feel most damaged. Thank God for the amnesia and memory issues.
Usually when an Other gets gravely embarrassed....they crawl inside and hide forever. Karen got embarrassed with her teenage frenzy and felt humiliated- all things considered and she has gone into hiding (she's the drama queen freaking). Some of us Others can handle the disgusting, but we are very, very sensitive.
-don't get me wrong....I would so love to try, but none of us can handle it.
