TheBigBrotherDo you think animals have thoughts? Are they capable of hearing that little voice that we humans have in our heads?
Not everyone has a voice in their head. Do you have a cat? Cats have thoughts. Unfortunately that thought is sometimes, “eff you, human!”
What do you mean about “not everyone has a voice in their head”? I have one… I would like to research more about this topic.

Well, what do you think it means?
I believe it would be interesting to talk about this with someone wo inner monologue.
I so not have an internal monologue.
This has been at least discussed/studied before but I don’t know if there has been any sort of formal poll to find a rate between those that do and those that don’t.
There are some studies. I don’t remember the specifics but it’s something like 50/50 on hearing and seeing and about 20 percent do neither. I’m sure those numbers are off, but that’s vaguely what i remember reading.
What do you mean by seeing? Like they don’t see images in their mind?
Some people do. Many of us don’t.
This is so fascinating! It’s easy to assume most people experience things the same way while we are all different all the way down to how we think and imagine stuff!
