The Visible Hand

It's beautiful, you can't miss it! Well, speaking for myself, when we can talk about the hands of Robert Goren, who cares Adam Smith's use of the metaphor of an Invisible Hand? Ah, in btw and in fact, before his most famous work The Wealth Of Nations (1776), the metaphor was already common in 17th-18th century literature and long before then in Greek and Roman times as well (for ex. the invisible hand of Jupiter). Besides unlike common beliefs the metaphor used only twice in all of Smith's writings: The History of Astronomy (Essays On Philosophical Subjects) & The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Honestly, what was his point? Laissez faire, laissez passer! Le monde va de lui-meme, oh la la:) Ah monsieur, le monde votre fortune et votre peril!

Res Ipsa Loquitur

To be honest; I never cared much about paraphilia topic while sitting in the psychopathology class. However I still know a few things about it. Well, paraphilia, known as sexual deviance, means beyond love (more literally beyong usual/typical love) in Greek and a fetish (kind of paraphilia) may manifest his/her obsession object as a desire to experience physical interaction or as a source of sexual fantasy. The term partialism (kind of fetishism) refers to a sexual interest with an exclusive focus of a specific part of the body and is categorized as a paraphilia in the DSM-IV-TR of the APA. For instance, latex is some sort of fetishistic attraction to people wearing clothing; such as leotards, bodysuits, stockings and latex gloves etc.
