And how do you treat members of the same sex now?This also applies to which parent you spent the least amount of time with, and how you treat members of that sex now too? IP: Logged |

Mother up to pre-teen years. Neither once I turned 13. I left home at 14 and never went home.I relate more to women than men. I don't get along well with males. IP: Logged |

Mom and I like the way women dress and look. I like their style options too, and value their opinions, their quiet voices and patient ways, except when they are yelling and stuff like that. I don't like the ones who are virago-like but the sweet, balanced, stereotypical, Libran woman is my ideal and I strive to be that way. Never-let-them-see-me-sweat kinda existence is what I idealize. I wish women were allowed to design all the cities and structures throughout the world.
I like the cheerful ones most, both genders. I only like melancholy when it's introspective and insightful, not biting, blunt and harsh. IP: Logged |

Neither both my parents worked.
I spent time with my grandparents, so I like old people more...Anyways I tend to get along better with people who don't emphasize too much on gender.

Not much to do with either.But I grew up with one foot in boy world and the other in girl world and I had an extended family active in my life. I generally get along with both genders. IP: Logged |

Actually neither. I spent the most time with my grandparents.. probably an equal amount of time with both.. and I treat both genders just the same lol I mean I'm friendly and open towards both men and women but I take my time in really opening up. I like most people though My grandparents were very young when they became grandparents, so they were more like parents anyway age-wise. IP: Logged |

Thought Provoking Thread.Never saw much of my father, and he was pretty mean when I did, but I am always more comfortable with men. Daddy Issues. Enjoy it, though! Sun Trine Stationary Jupiter, not well-placed, and with Mercury-Mars Square.

Oh, I didn't mean to make it sound like it was about genders. I was more curious about what your relationship patterns are now and if they matched the relationship patterns you had with your parents. For some reason I didn't think of explaining it that way atm when I posted.IP: Logged |

I will actually contribute Hanna's idea for this thread.
Are you psych major or something?Well i have interesting parents. My father is emotional and sensitive, not brutish by any means.
I'd describe my mother as stoic, detached and take charge of the situation kinda of woman. So basically I never grew up around normal gender roles so gender is irrelevant to me..
You don't have to act a certain way because you have a particular set of genitals located in between your legs. As for people who identify strongly with their genitals, it's not my problem if they're uncomfortable around me. 
I'm perfectly fine being ambiguous. IP: Logged |

LOL **** I wish I just read that before I posted...
Hmmm I dunno if they do reflect...
I'll have to think about that. I don't think so, but there are people who do fit that trend.
Like chris brown is good example.

Thanks Kerosene, and I was! But now I'm a sociology major.And maybe I'm not being clear… for example: Although my Dad and I got along a LOT better than my mom and I did, he was absent a lot because of all the business trips he took when I was little. So I spent a lot more time with my mom and even though I fought with her more, I think her being around all the time is part of why I find it so easy to connect with women. When I connect with men in a romantic sense it's very Uranian being off and on, back and forth, etc. And part of me wonders if it's because of my Dad's schedule when I was little. IP: Logged |

That's how it is for me. Just being around a woman and no men has programmed me to deal with women better or something, I feel more comfortable, not so anxious around them.

My Mother. I don't get along well with women and I'm not really sure why but when they want friendship with me I don't realize it until it's too late. I look at women in a more sexual and detached way for some reason. Like they're walking sex kittens that I don't want to emotionally connect to but I want to touch. Sorry if that's too forward. Is this a perverted Moon in Cap?  My father was always emotionally connected but is a recluse so I only saw him when he lived in town or when I asked him to come get me to spend a couple weeks at his ranch. Short bursts of involvement. I get along better with men because they don't get frustrated when I don't call to keep a running commentary on what's happening in both our lives and the women I meet tend to want that. I've been called a biatch by a lot of old girl friends because I'm pretty detached toward them. The kind of men I end up wanting are the ones that I have to actively chase. Kinda relates to how I had to gain time with my dad, which is a pretty interesting connection. I get along with both genders of elderly people. They seem to get what I'm all about and the conversation is always excellent. I willingly went to my grandmother's house to spend time with her before she passed so I think this predisposes me toward older folks. Great question, Hanna! IP: Logged |

hannaramaa, I think you might be onto something here. My relationship pattern does sorta reflect my relationship with my parents. I love being around people, I'm eager to forge friendships and sometimes romantic relationships, but I rarely feel the need to "keep" these relationships. Quite detached and sorta indifferent. It's hard to explain, I love them but I'm also ok with not seeing them or thinking about them in 10 years. The only exception is my s.o. IP: Logged |

Spent most time with mother. I joke with and create small talk with each sex equally. (just put on the charm, the "show") I reveal feelings to men
I reveal my soul to women If either are lucky (or unlucky?) to get that far. IP: Logged |

What's the difference between feelings and your soul? Unless by feelings you mean your opinion. IP: Logged |

Feelings might be how I feel about situations, things, events, etc. Soul to me is my deepest hopes, dreams, wishes, secrets. Generally speaking I don't show much emotion to strangers. So by these things I mean people that I've become close to. IP: Logged |

I grew up around my mom - till age 10, but spent the most time with my Grandmother. Me & Granny are both Gemini-Sagittarius.My mom is Scorpio-Leo, dominant, volatile and not fun to be around for long stretches...more than one hour. I have Moon-Saturn square - most exact aspect. My Grandmother at her best was a stereotypical grandma - I like being around her. Plus, she was interactive, engaging, answered questions, help me solve problems, gave encouragement, teach me things. In all relationships, I bring out the nasty razor-tongue, ice cold, stubborn-to-the-point-of-stupidity side of my personality to the more feisty/pushy types. This before I cut them off brutally. To those that remind me of Grandma, I bring out the thoughtful, unselfish, considerate, how-can-I-serve-you Virgo rising -- me at my best. IP: Logged |
