Are you saying that you're incapable of non-narrative thoughts?
- DoreenMichele 7y agoNo. I'm saying that an oppressive enough culture, where you cannot express yourself, interferes with your relationship to yourself and with developing better mental models.
- knolax 7y agoI don't see why self discovery has to involve external expression. Isn't the whole point to delve inwards?
- DoreenMichele 7y agoWithout a mirror or other external device, no one can see their own face. It's a bit like that.
