  1. You know a lot of women like Gay men for some reason to. Not just dudes and lesbians.
  2. Non educational books I am reading a romance novel. I have also been reading a jap/english dictionary trying to teach myself Japanese.
  3. Psychology is indeed a real science and it can be proven in certain situations. Psychology is used by lawyers to win a case and its used to interrogate criminals. If you say its not real you are stating manipulation is not real either. Manipulation is a real thing and if someone is good enough they can do this without you realizing it. Manipulation has been used by politicians and dictators all over the world. One example would be Hitler. He united his people by giving them one common enemy. When you are all facing the same enemy you all become friends. So he fueled the hate, the war and lead his whole country on the idea "THE JEWS DID IT!" that is psychology. However many patients will complain about doctors who simply abuse their position or just don't seem to be doing enough to help. Some psychiatrist speak with a patient for five minutes and write up a prescription for some drug. One might argue that this does not seem like a long enough time to give a full and proper diagnoses for a mental issue. As well as this people argue that some of these illnesses are fabricated such as ADD/ADHD. Some of the things which are considered disorders seem to mimic typical behavior. ADD/ADHD says that children who are unfocused and hyper have it but some grow out of it. This is debatable for the fact most children are hyper and unfocused and that is why we teach them discipline. So is a child being hyper a sign of a mental disorder or simply the fact they are kids? The argument comes up is it the parents fault or is it natures fault? All that aside if we agree these mental illnesses as real or not psychology is a thing even if they have truly abused it to fabricate disorders. You can see patterns in human behavior if you pay attention. Most People act a way for a reason. Even the most illogical person in the world might have some motive for their actions. Even if what they are doing is horribly misguided. Even if we said no mental disorder existed we still have behavior. Psychology is the study of human behavior and so with or without mental illnesses we can still study how a person behaves. We can also do this to bend a situation to our will. We can study how a group acts when influenced by something. We can see how a country acts when influenced by something. However I don't think most people need to do intense research to know psychology. Since its the study of behavior and we learn how to behave from the time we are very young. We are forced to learn this from the day we are born. We are forced to try and fit in. We are forced to do what we believe is acceptable. We all care about what someone is going to say. Most re-frame from what they believe may gain negative attention. This too is why we make stereotypes. Stereotype is noticing the similarities within certain groups and projecting it over an entire people. Which is not 100 percent accurate. However people often assume it must be for the reason a hand full of people in that group has done it.
