Fascinating! I hadn't realized that, but you're right. It's appropriate/unsurprising since I'm a solidly bodied person, psychologically. Body structures and mechanics (literal and metaphorical, scientifically and philosophically) are all very important to me. Skulls and hearts are two of my favorite images/symbols.
I know people who wish they were a brain in a jar and didn't have to worry about their bodies, but the idea of doing that to myself horrifies and repulses me. I have a similar aversion to the idea of uploading one's consciousness. Not for me, thanks.
Your comment is giving me a lot to think about. Hmm. I think this is something important about my psyche that maybe wants a bit more meditation and analysis. Thank you!
