Let me be clear about what I am saying about the gorgeous porn star Cory Chase here. Based oh her dynamic calm of all of her performances, I am here crediting her dynamic calm as manifesting that she is accessing the optimal and positive form of the Queen archetype of maturity in her psyche.

However, I have no basis for also crediting Cory Chase with also accessing the optimal and positive form of the King archetype of maturity in her psyche - because I do not know her and her life well enough to do so. I hasten to add here that I also have no basis for saying that Cory Chase is mainlining (Moore's term) either "shadow" form of the King archetype of maturity in her psyche (i.e., I do not know her well enough to make such an interpretation about her) - because I do not know her and her life well enough to do so.

Now, if my two interpretations of liberation from endogamous kinship libido "married within" our psyches to our early childhood image of our mom (or mother-figure), on the one hand, and, on the other, of our own dad (or father-figure) are correct, your guess is as good as mine as to what exactly these two psychological transformations in my life will mean in the practical order of my life. Stay tuned for further developments.

In the meantime, I will just have to be patient and wait and see what unfolds now over time.

Now, as you might expect, in my various OEN articles in which I discuss Jung's account of "The Two Ways of Thinking," I align what Jung refers to as fantasy thinking involving images and associative thinking with what Ong refers to as primary oral thought and expression (also known as primary orality, for short). In his account of orally based thought and expression in his 1982 book Orality and Literacy: The Technologizing of the Word (Methuen, pp. 36-57).

I have discussed Ong's 1982 account of characteristics of orally based thought and expression on my article "Walter Ong and Harold Bloom Can Help Us Understand the Hebrew Bible" in Explorations in Media Ecology, 11(3&4), (2012), pp. 255-272.

Now, in my various OEN article in which I discuss Jung's two kinds of thinking, fantasy thinking involving images and associative thinking, on the one hand, and, on the other, directed thinking involving logic, I then also align what Jung refers to as directed thinking with what Ong refers to as literate alphabetic thought (known as literacy, for short).

In any event, I have discussed porn, especially the ubiquitous mom-son porn videos that are available free on the internet in various OEN articles (I know, I know, mom-son porn videos are also popular in DVDs):
