Do You Happen to Have a High Forehead?

Post Reply New Topic

You're probably really pretty, with nicely-flowing red hair.

I can understand that you don't want to send your picture over the Interwebs.

As you can see, my forehead is really large and broad. My big head makes me 5 foot 4.75: Had I had a "normal"-sized head, I'd probably be about 5 foot 3.

It's interesting. I'm going to tally up the numbers, tomorrow, being that I am quite tired, presently, but wanted to thank everyone for contributing.

Goodnight to all.... x o

(and, carry on... : )

always high, but I may well make it to the finish line with my hair mostly there.

Huh, interesting. I'm intrigued to know the results of your study.

I do, in fact, have a high forehead.

How odd, I'm certain I'd posted another reply in this thread last night and now it's nowhere to be found. Alas. I expect it's wandered off and is sitting by itself somewhere, wondering what went wrong.

Kraftie, I didn't know that was your real picture in your avatar - you look like my cardiologist.

I suspect you're imagining me as being much prettier than reality, but I confess I don't mind a bit. Pray continue.

The avatar is me in 2009, when I went on an Alaskan cruise.

To sort of quote Dr. McCoy: "I'm a data-entry clerk, not a doctor!"

Your words bespeak attractiveness.

All right then, there's me in 2002 - I'd had my hair "done", though, so the usual crazed corkscrew flyaway curls were tamed for the space of about 45 minutes.

You look lovely, with luxuriant hair

And your necklace, I sense, would contain something interesting. Maybe a locket? Maybe a quote from some great personage, or the product of an epic love story?

There's a sort of a Bohemian quality to you.

Yes, a high forehead and a very large, square head.

You're very kind - but please add sixteen years, thirty-one pounds (my cardiologist reminds me frequently), wrinkles and laugh lines, and significant streaks of sugar in the cinnamon hair.

The pendant is an enneagram. I'm not a true believer by any stretch, but it was a gift from a dear friend years ago and I keep it as a reminder that we are all different - and that's okay. It helps me cheer up when I'm feeling morose or inclined to be harsh with myself for not processing as others around me do.

I think Bohemian is a lovely description, but now I've got "O Soave Fanciulla" stuck in my head.

on the subject of big foreheads and AS, I read that AS folk have more frontal lobe brainstuff than NTs or ADHD folk. I remember as a kid I had a big head relative to the rest of my body, school pictures made it seem I was a bit of a "Mister Potatohead" in that regard. the effect this extra brainstuff has, is that it could be seen as a sign of insufficient neural pruning in the single digit years, the normal process whereby a developing brain streamlines its neural connections to those which are most efficient, and as a result our brains are relatively "musclebound" which causes or worsens the tendencies towards perseveration, anxiety et all that we are familiar with in ourselves.

Hi Ms. Chess,

I can say, with at least some confidence, that you probably look good at present. And your verbal presentation, inevitably, enhances your looks

If you, all of a sudden, started to abuse drugs/alcohol after 2002, or smoked like a chimney, then the result could be different. I don't find that many people "lose their looks" unless they abuse drugs/alcohol. Or smoke a lot of cigarettes.

The gray streaks in one's hair actually enhances a person. It makes the person seem wiser.

In many people, "laugh lines" are actually appealing. At least you don't have a jowl. My older brother developed a jowl; I hope I don't develop one. He's sort of a cynic; I believe his cynicism caused him to develop that jowl.

I learned something new; I never knew what an "enneagram" was. It's a nice design for a necklace.

Egad! I am in my Vernacular Mode. There is no eloquence in the above.
