Weird Little Me

'Tis as if fate itself pushes me towards weirdness.

By rights I could, should be featureless, of average height, with a face of everyone, but I am not. Instead my body towers oddly and I try to balance my consciousness atop it all with that silly gait. How unbecoming.

I might even hypothesize that the initial conditions of schizotipy have influenced other gene expressions besides those responsible for neural development and have gone on to pervert both my facial type and body structure. The syndrome can be thought of as influencing the whole phenotype. One could do a survey asking people whether they find themselves weird and/or not at home in their bodies, then test these people for schizotipy, and record their physical characteristics. The data would allow comparing schizotypes to normals in regards to weirdness perception both objective and subjective. If physique eccentricities would turn out to correlate with schizotipy then there would be grounds to thinking that, well, there is a correlation. Either one characteristic influences the expression of the other, vice-versa, or there is an underlying cause that dictates both.
