Freudian Slips

The subconscious is that which concerns the part of the mind of which one is not fully aware of but that which can influences one's actions and feelings…a Freudian slip is when one may something that comes from the subconscious mind and not the one that we usually operate with…such ‘slips’ can sometimes be interpreted as the ‘real’ feelings of a person…as with many things, they can be interpreted incorrectly by those trying to pass themselves off as experts on psychology…sometimes it is merely a slip of the tongue only and does not reveal the true nature of one’s thoughts…sometimes they are merely as a malaprop and nothing more…an example would be if one told a pretty girl in a biology class that ‘those’ are interesting orgasms when he meant to say organisms’…not that I ever said anything like that…heh heh…I’m not sure she caught that or she just chose to ignore it…anyway, the idea of the subconscious mind is often seen as a powerful thing and some believe that controlling its supposed knowledge or incredible power is seen as a great advantage to that person…on occasion, the subconscious mind can overtake the conscious mind and lead to an action being taken that usually would not be done when the conscious mind is in charge.
