Numbers

[4getmenot]

I thought long and hard about putting this question on here because I don't want any of you to think I'm totally screwed :-) But then I thought oh well some of you know I'm nuts anyway. So my question is does anybody else see numbers as being male or female. I don't know why but I see 1 as male, 2 as female, 3 as a tomboy, 4 as male, 5 a tomboy, 6 a female, 7 a male, 8 a male, 9 a male and 0 as a male. Have I completely lost it because I've always thought that way growing up has anybody else?

and by the way "mentalist" isn't necessarily the insult it's intended as. Weren't the Mentalists part of a movement that advocated actions based on pure thought, or something? Until hijacked by Partridge. There's a very, very funny Richard Bean play called The Mentalists, which I highly recommend you see or read if you get the chance.

Now it seems that everyone can do this, and I'm getting a bit jealous. I don't want words to taste like earwax, and I don't want to see a dayglo lightshow like I'm tripping on acid every time I hear a conversation. But a few pretty shapes and colours when listening to some music would be good. A few chosen words to evoke pleasant tastes wouldn't be half bad either.

ah bless you supernick, See first I thought I was nuts now people are getting jelous :-)

I also see food as colours. Apples are green and sometimes red, carrots are orange, and aubergines are a dark purpley colour...

Okay, I'll stop now. :o\

Thank goodness I'm not the only one. I do this with numbers, colors & letters. They are all either male or female, but some of them are more feminine males (in contrast to your female - tomboys).

I thought everyone did this until I saw a news show (like 20/20) that talked about it. Now everyone thinks I'm wacked when I talk about it.

1,2,3 - female. 4 - feminine male. 5-10 are male
