So it's true about waking up with an erection? Perhaps it only lasts a couple of seconds. Especially when your mother's there! I watched a fascinating program by Richard Feynman, about why you have no memories before the age of 3 or so, it's because the particular part of the brain that stores memories is creating new neurons that are destroying the neural pathways of the existing memories, and the reason this happens after birth is due to the pelvic restraints of increasing the head size of the baby, and it would prolong gestation. This neuron creation slows considerably by the age of about 3. And memories start being better preserved. Freud reckoned that you did have early memories but they were suppressed, of course this has funded therapists ever since trying to recover memories, that have actually been destroyed. ![]() |
