I wonder how this varies by race. I wonder if more black people have an internal monologue because we've been so isolated/rejected that we "go inside of ourselves" (if that makes sense) and think, internally, before we express ourselves. I wonder if it is less common among the white populations because they haven't had to stifle themselves, and have been allowed to express themselves, with a much more broad range, while living in a society that validates those expressions. I talk to myself, inside my head, all the time. I spend a good amount of time in my own head. I also wonder if having an internal monologue is more common among introverts than extroverts. This is very interesting.

This is interesting becuase if you ask me question about a topic i know alot about, i dont need to think about my answer. It flows naturally and effortlessly.

now if its the opposite, i would have to think before speaking. Making sure if im bullshyttin, thats it coherent at least. Thats where the voice in my head dictates what i say.

i think a lot just babble endlessly and that somehow is seen as someone who is intelligent and dense. But its always quality or quantity.

I feel like it's more than that, no way its only 30-50% of people. But you never know.

Think of how many men that are just impulsive and can't really be talked too, or women that have very extreme outbursts and need attention.

There's some people that actually can't visualize things in their heads.

Anyway. It explains a lot to be honest.

i mean... the society that's telling you that...half of it can't do it. the other half thinks its normal but doing it too much is abnormal.

:dahell:

Your second sentence references speaking in your head before you speak out loud. That’s not the same as having an internal reading voice. It’s two completely different things but for some reason you mentioning them both like it’s one in the same. Thinking out every sentence before you speak it would have people thinking you are retarded.

I feel that I met quite a few women who don't think about anything ever. Things just happen and they go with the flow.
i didnt want to go there. but every example ive seen, so far, has been of a woman. i also think that's what's skewing the votes and responses here. the majority of TLR is male...

Now here's an interesting thing that a lot of nikkas don't realize.

If you hold your breath, including your nose, can you hear the thoughts in your head? The answer is likely no. You speak in your head with your nose. :mjgrin:

I probably fukked a lot of people up with that one, but it's true. :mjgrin:

A fun experiment you can do if you have the inner monologue is to just ignore it for a week. Good exercise to break cycles.
