this kind of "phenomenon"... is basically out of curiousity of how other people are, because that's just human nature.. besides the fact that we're aggressive... u find stuff about people and talk. that's pretty much it.
and for the pervs out there... it's a place to "cyber".... sick fucks.

So every day you wake up and brush your teeth, then you eat your breakfast, and go to school or work: this is a phenomenological experience, but it would be one more so if you were immediately aware of your eperience. Aristotle, who was an immediate sense realist said that everything within the supernatural realms, this is the subject of metaphysics, could be understood through ordinary experience. it is one of the most important things to understand bc there are ppl out there, philosophers ofcourse, who have all these radical claims like nothing exists.... we do not know anything.... skeptics will be deluded be those radicals and those innocent, those who are unaware of their fallasies toward a downward spiral of nihlism.

Wow those are a lot of big words.....

lamens terms please?

Reading R.D. Laing's "The Divided Self" might be a cool idea, for it describes psychosis and so on through "existential phenomenology". Laing says psychology and psychiatry people are seeing the vace, not the face (don't see patients as people: vace/face analogy is explained in the book!).

Yup, so that should make the beast toasters look better with the whole "The voices say I'm not psychotic" thing and "The toast told me to do that!!"
