After our last Teen Beat special, I wish to return to an interesting topic around those of us who are Adult Little Girls and in particular those who take part in forum discussions and the like.
I haven’t really addressed this before but one thing that struck me about our groups especially at GT, is what an array of talents we happen to have in our midst, from artists, seamstresses, writers of fiction, people who in are Engineering, the Sciences and so on.
One does wonder about how much society actually gains from people like us who use childlike, non-linear thinking as well as problem solving to come up with solutions over our more regular colleagues and friends.
It wasn’t me but someone known well to this blog who remarked that thinking about the hundreds of people they’ve worked with and groups and forums they themselves have interacted with finds this group (at GT) having an unusually high percentage of greater intelligence, wit, imagination, creativity compared with others.
Put like that, personally having been in a number of forums including TG ones and worked with a number of people in different fields, that’s how it comes over to me too.
I do wonder if being inclined to think outside of adult boundaries and the social need self-censoring ones thoughts, because we are childlike so never stopped doing so, you remain more open to possibilities exploring them?
Maybe this might answer the question “Do we have a role to play in society?”
Very interesting post. I for one think very much that we do. I think eternal children have the ability to access their imagination at a greater level, it runs free, is untamed. From imagination comes all things great!!
ReplyDeleteOf course the downside can be our attention span lol, well especially with me.
But yes our role in society should be a given.
