I didn't ask what your father was like, I asked what your mother is like. There has to be more to her than being "wimpy, mediocre".

But, responding to you finding your father gorgeous and sexy, having a "daddy" fetish...

Ever read up on an old theory called the Electra Complex?

 Of course I have.  And I in fact gave an accurate depiction of my parents. flounces off

Would you say you saw your mother as competition toward your father's affection, and you always felt like you were in second place because he preferred her over you? From her being weak, yet still more successful than you, did this set the stage for you to feel as if you might be even weaker than her?

Do you think this sense of competition may have framed how you see all women, and overtime you began to only be comfortable around those who didn't represent your mother through chronic transference on a wide scale?

Did anything happen to you as a child, barring the above?

 I think in terms of the Freudian and/or psychological aspects,  you have it right.  I always felt my coolness and indifference to all females was somehow or the other not normal.  Yes,  many things happened to me.  But now I am recalling how the author of Confessions of a Sociopath spoke about drawing people out,  so she could publicly blast them.  So I'll refrain from saying further,  remembering what sort of forum this is (as opposed to one, say, where people comfort eachother over childhood trauma.  Yikes ) ;-)

 Addendum:  Despite my seeming indifference towards women,  I become unduly upset if I think I have offeneded one (eg,  with sugargirl before,  I felt horrified at angering her  ....Go figure ... ;-)  )

Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever "blasted" someone here (granted, I am not a sociopath).

I mostly view Freudian beliefs as a joke, but every once in a while a poster child example will poke his or her head out.

20 minutes shy of five days ago:
Me: Do you think everyone here is a sociopath?
You: I didn't at first,  but now I do.

Still think everyone here is a sociopath?
