Is "gaydar" paranormal?

Electical pulses? Pardon me, but you're nuking futz.

My own claims may be questionable, but ...

Set me loose in a mixed crowd and I can be "on the make" and avoid being punched in the nose.

OK?
 
Hey, Abdul,
Check out his eyes in his avatar.
Hummmm?

Or do you mean live, where you see if someone is checking out your body?

I'm curious about something. I listened to a few of the links to the music in your sig. That's yours, right? What I'm curious about is, in your music there's an artistic cohesiveness and (although I'm sure it doesn't meet all tastes) a sophistication of style that is utterly lacking in your posts. I mean it's a vast disconnect.

I have a challenge for you that I hope you'll take me up on, and that is to craft a piece of music specifically for this audience. I would honestly love to hear what you come up with. I really liked one of the songs in your sig, I think it was the first one (although, again, I have crappy speakers, so I couldn't understand all the lyrics very well--but if you wrote us a song, I would go out of my way to play it on good speakers.)
 
Ha, because, their is more in audio than what I can put in a post, an actual expression besides words, I try to send the gist of what Im trying to make people understand, Im sorry that I have a problem communicating, I do communicate with animals and have occultist wisdom...this causes this problem. You must be preceiving me differently. Try repressing your prefrontal lobe, or forehead. now the ego is less active.

I actually just gained some pyscological jargon in a week or so, to try to explain myslef to you guys. HA, I learne dthat you guys think ego is the answer for anything unusal.
 
the new track I posted gives off a {edited for profanity - KILESS} vibe. I like it though, this is me, very angry =)

Why, that functions on exactly the same principles as the BS meter, which I would demonstrate if you didn't insist on overloading it with every post you make.
 
On Topic:

"Gaydar", the way i've always seen and heard it used, is nothing more than a euphemism for an ability to read someone's likely sexual orientation from their body language and demeanor. I've never heard anyone use the term, seriously, to mean anything even remotely approaching the paranormal. I can usually hit about 70-80% on a good day; but then, I live in a part of town where the GLBT population is around 30-40% anyway.

Yeah I always wondered about that. It seems like studio interference.."We want a happy ending". Also screws up any sequels. According to this site,

http://www.starport.com/sciencefiction/movies/lynch_dune_con_001205.html

it's the way Lynch wanted it. There is a link on that page regarding an attempt to make Dune in the Seventies...Dali as Emperor?

Sorry about the derail Abdul, and my messy looking post. It's the first time I have posted on the new forum and I'm kinda lost.

A lot of what Lynch originally shot never made it to the movie. There's rumours of a 4-hour "director's cut", but that appears to be more or less and urban legend. I like the Lynch version better than the Sci-Fi channel version overall; but his "weirding module" invention should have gotten him hauled out in the street and pimp-slapped to death. As it was, the studio still altered Lynch's original vision to a great degree.

Oh, and the version with Salvador Dali as emperor Shaddam was a truly messed-up distortion of the book planned by director Alejandro Jodorowky, who is a complete and total whackjob, and who makes David Lynch's stuff look incredibly normal by comparison. http://www.hotweird.com/jodorowsky/dunestory.html Jodorowsky was going to have the Harkonnen set designs done by Swiss surrealist H.R. Giger (who did the alien creature designs for the Alien and Species movies); and one Giger's books has the design drawings that he did prior to Lynch taking over the project.

Actually, I would have liked to see that...

(from the link)
In my version of Dune, the Emperor of the Galaxy is mad. He lives on an artificial planet of gold, in a palace of gold constructed according to the non-laws of anti-logic. He lives in symbiosis with a robot identical to him. The resemblance is so perfect that the citizens never know if they are facing the man or the machine... In my version, the spice is a blue drug of a spongy consistency filled with a vegtable-animal life endowed with consciousness, the highest level of consciousness. It doesn't stop taking all sorts of forms, shifting without cease. The spice continually reproduces the creation of innumerable universes.

I'm just not sure he should have tried to call it "Dune."

One time, divinity really wanted to tell me in a lucid dream: "Your next film must be Dune". I had not read the novel.

Well, that explains it...

Define gay.

If gaydar identifies a person as gay, is it a correct result if the subject is (pick one or more)...

--A person who answers "yes" to the public question from a stranger "Are you gay?"

--A person who answers "yes" to the question if asked privately by someone he/she trusts but answers "no" if asked by a stranger.

--A person who has ever had sexual relations with the same sex

--A person who has never had sexual relations with the same sex, but has "repressed" their homosexuality, even if they don't know it.

--A person who only has sexual relations with the same sex.

--A person who has sexual relations with both sexes equally.

--A person who has only had sexual relations with the opposite sex, but is sometimes aroused thinking about members of the same sex.

--A person who is a transvestite, a transsexual, is intersexed, or would be identified by some clinical label other than homosexual.

Etc.
 
A friend of mine and I were talking about this the other day.

We decided it was nothing more then body language. The eyes usually give it away. When you enter a room you tend to glance over the room for whatever reason. If, when you are glancing, you find somebody attractive you will inadvertently stall on the subject for a second or two longer then any body else. Now it is difficult to follow what other people are looking at, unless it is you.

So my friend, being gay, can usually pick out some guy that has interest him because he held eye contact a little longer then usual. As I can find a women that may have at least a passing interest me by eye contact.

I suppose it is linked to some evolutionary benefit. Such as figuring the mental state of another human by body language alone.
 
Pup: A preference for the same sex, and some degree of self-identification.

For the purposes of "gaydar", it means someone who can be approached as gay without giving offense.

More precision is not necessary.

Transsexuals and the like are a whole 'nother issue.
