,

I'd have to agree with you on this one. What you say makes sense. Don't you

wish that somebody would do a study on this? You could really challenge your

son with something like Mandarin or another tone language. That would be a

really fun experiment.

All I have to do is talk to my sis-in-law for 10 minutes and I sound like

I was born and raised in Surrey BC. Poor hubby had to listen to a really

interesting Newfoundland/Idaho accent when I got back from my brothers

wedding and I drove my brother nuts when we were young and listening to

the presidential debates with Jimmy . I sounded like a Georgia

native. I won't mention what I sounded like after doing phone interview

with other library workers from Texas, Hawaii, New York, New Jersey and

Tennesee in one evening hehehehehe.

I've always been able to pick up accents well, which was great when I was

taking foreign languages in school.

I'm a rightie, but pick up accents so badly that people think I'm imitating

them and sometimes get mad. But my 20-year old son, a leftie, has problems

with foreign language study, although that may not be fair--he took Mandarin

Chinese in HS and I don't think that's all that easy to learn. He's starting

Spanish to meet his language requirement at UCLA, and we'll see how that

goes. It scared him, though, after his trouble with Chinese. Which, I have

to say, it the only thing in school that ever gave him trouble.

You guys are making my year. First you account for all my idiosyncrasies and

then go on to prove (at least anecdotally) what a lot of the Cognitive people

have been saying for years. There HAS to be a connection between autoimmunity,

handedness, sexual preference (I wonder how many of us have gay relatives as

well), and brain wiring.

These similarities would make a wonderful study for someone who wanted to do it.

Terry,

Mandarin is a horrid thing for an English speaking person to learn because of

the tones. We just aren't used to speaking music. So, even though he is a

lefty, he may have missed his most opportune time to learn tonal languages,

which would have been in the first three years of his life.

There was an article I read recently (and I can't remember where, I think maybe

Scientific American or Discover) which seemed to indicate that people who play

with those color coded kid versions of instruments may be the ones who have

perfect pitch. They think tone and see the color. Strange things brains.

He will probably do just fine with Spanish. If he is at UCLA he might even be

able to find Spanish speaking people to converse with. Of course he will pick

up a dialect then. (Laughing because my daughter learned Castilian in Argentina

and was laughed at in the Basque country of Spain. They thought she was trying

to put on airs.

Hi All,

This is interesting. I know of no gays in my family, if there are or were

they didn't tell anyone.

Now, my husbands family is a different story, they have quite a few that

are. Several that are my husbands age and older. They have autoimmune

disease. And I honestly believe the dyslexia in my girls comes from my

husbands side. He is very intelligent, he is excellent in math, history,

government etc. He has terrible handwriting and he doesn't have good

spelling skills, but vocabulary is excellent. I've seen dyslexia in me, but

never noticed until after the graves disease. There are days I struggle

with how to spell a word, even to the point of spelling the first syllable

and I was always excellent in spelling. I was always in spelling bees in

school, but would misspell the word on purpose. I've never liked crowds so

to get out of the spot light I would get the word wrong, until I made it to

almost the end.

and All,

My oldest daughter has always been able to pick up different accents.

She does an excellent British accent.

Sorry about all these posts. Trying to get caught up with emails.

Okay. My oldest is dyslexic and she is right handed, but she can pick up

accents very quickly and change from one to the other. She is always the

singer in the family, she listens to a song once and can sing it. At 9 y.o.

she could sing Montgomery Grundy County Auction, after hearing

it once.

Ok, I'm going to add another oddity to this. I learned this through my

researching DES daughters (as I am one).

There is a 10 fold increase in gay and lesbian offspring in the DES children

that were born to mothers who took DES. Researchers believe that this is due

to the bathing of the fetus in the synthetic estrogen (DES) that the pregnant

Mom's took while the fetus was developing at a specific time during gestation.
