mmegaeraWhy do some people insist that other people's gut feelings are wrong? Not different, but wrong?
Esp. after having it explained that while the brain understands why the intention of the subject in question may not have been what it feels like, the gut just -- doesn't?
It's like telling someone their opinion is wrong. Facts are one thing, and can be right or wrong. But opinions are just different from each other, even if they're radically unacceptable to the other side.
Oh, Bujold list, sometimes I'd like to squeeze your little throat until something pops loose.
