ASMR ✨ Relaxing Phrenological Examination ✨ | Soft Spoken Historical Pseudoscience RP

With a methodical practice of running my fingers along your skull, I can determine your personality traits with the utmost accuracy :) Welcome to your phrenological assessment! Phrenology was a pseudoscience that was most popular in the early to mid 19th century, but continued well into the 20th. The practice was first developed by Franz Joseph Gall, who also described five tenets to phrenology, four of which I recite in the beginning of the video. Sit down & relax, and I'll be measuring and palpating all over your head to ascertain the size and shape of the "organs" on your brain.

Phrenology is a 📢 PSEUDOSCIENCE 📢 From Wikipedia: "Pseudoscience consists of statements, beliefs, or practices that claim to be both scientific and factual but are incompatible with the scientific method." This video is only intended for relaxation purposes, and I'm just an actor on the Internet.

I want y'all to have a safe environment here regardless of where you come from, who you love, what you look like, you name it. I don't tolerate discrimination or hatred based on attributes you can't change like where you were born, what color you are, if you have a disability, or who you love– above all, be kind to one another. We're all just people, just trying to do our thing.

❥ Frequently Asked Questions:
- “Why do you ask for a preferred name & address?” While I'm a cisgender woman, I'm very aware of my audience having members that don't use their 'legal' names (I'm one of them) and use specific pronouns, or are questioning their names and given pronouns. It's just common courtesy to make everyone more comfortable here. Even if it doesn't apply to you, it may apply to others and makes the world of difference.
- “Why do you ask for consent to touch (even if it's a given)?” Coooommon courtesy; big thing with me. I hate being touched by anyone I don't know, but being asked even if I know I'm going to have to anyway is much more comfortable than someone putting their paws on me without warning. Common courtesy.
- “Is your name really Calliope? How do you say it?” Yup. It's pronounced Ka-Lie-Oh-Pee, not Kal-Ee-Ope.
