Cognitive dissonance

Cognitive dissonance occurs when a person has been taught something all their lives that is wrong.  When they are confronted with a truth that counters that teaching, they cannot assess the situation accurately.  Their teachings get in the way of the truth.  When the whole superstructure of their belief system is based on some supreme being that knows all, sees all, and cannot be questioned, it becomes nearly impossible to penetrate that stupour.

For a better definition, I suggest you look it up online.

 I have wracked my brain to try to figure out why humanity can't penetrate the stupour and see where we have gone wrong.

Men are easy to explain.  They are scared to death of the subject of coitus and their less than spectacular part in it (from a sentient point of view).  The male gender made a grave mistake long ago and never recovered.  They have been trained into the stupour by paradigms of nonsense and their failure to make coitus something human since they hit puberty.  It is as inflexible as believing in a god that cannot be questioned.  They've been trained into their insanity, generation by generation.  It is all reinforced when they hit puberty and bounce due to their failure to make coitus a loving event.

Women continue to confound me.  I visited this feminist library in London, one time.  This was while I was just finishing Sentience and I thought it would be nice to get a feminist view.

I guess, in retrospect, I can't be too surprised.  No one seems to want to let go of their hate, misery, and disillusionment with the prehuman condition.

These women really highlighted cognitive dissonance for me.  They so hated men that there was nothing I could say to penetrate their belief that the problem is men.  

Instead of realizing that men have a problem that turns our sentience upside down.  Maybe, just like men, they believe there is nothing to be done.  They believe wholeheartedly that men are the problem and there isn't a damn thing that can be done about it.

Cognitive dissonance is like a ringing in everyone's ears when coitus is mentioned.  It goes so deep into the subconscious that there is virtually no sign.

I guess part of cognitive dissonance is discussed in Human. When someone becomes convinced of something, without any real evidence, it is almost impossible to dislodge the belief.  

As far as I am concerned, that is most of the prehuman race.  Left, right, or center, everyone is delusioned.  They will believe it until the day they die or their 'friends' convince them to follow some different nonsense.  It's always been that way.

The Nail is a certainty.  I have proved it every which way but loose.  The evidence is all around us.  It all makes sense.  It all ties together.  The only outstanding item is to prove, once and for all, that men can learn to love physically during coitus.  The emotional turmoil of men is all due to that failure to perform loving coitus of a great majority of men.

While the title is cognitive dissonance, I always felt a bit uncomfortable with this post because it does not explain the term.  That's okay, I guess.  I find that, mostly, no one uses the internet for one of its most transformative properties: study, research, and looking things up.  If you never use it for such, then consider this an opportunity to begin to use the internet in a radical new way.

I'll bite my tongue right here.
