Hi Pete,

After reading further, I see that I may have muddied the waters a little more. With the following definition here is what I see.

Here's the definition of cross packaging. it doesn't apply so Dennis misspoke in the TROM manual.


Cross-packaging
When a junior package is not erasing cleanly the most common fault is that the package is not a true package. This is known as cross-packaging. It is one of the 'deadly' sins. When two or more junior packages are crossed up into one package neither of the packages will erase and the whole mish-mash just grinds on forever. The therapist who tries to resolve a man's drinking problem by addressing his infantile sex life is guilty of cross- packaging. This is why the 'therapy' goes on forever with no relief for the patient.

The packages are not the little differences that exist between the sexes, male to female or female to male but the fact that male is different than female and vice versa. So it is not the differences that exist between a male and a female but the simple fact that male is different than female and female different than male. To heck with all the differences thereby derived, it is that male is not female and female is not male.

With two separate things which are not the duplicate of the other, there will always be a difference. To then go into all the differences that one can spot between the two sexes will not address the basic. So one can process out all of the differences that they can find between sexes and totally miss the basic. The basic is that one sex is not the other.

So if one then processes on those differences between two items, one may miss the fact that there is an opposition and games condition because there are two different things, not that there are two or more differences in sexual characteristics. Basically not being able to see the forest for the trees. Processing out all the different trees and all of their differences between each other will not process out the opposition terminal of the forest. Just process on 'the forest'. As in Dennis' sample, process alcohol not "infantile sex life". A person may give you or you yourself may give yourself housekeeping as the opposition subject when it is really male vs female or female vs male and nothing more non-esoteric than that.

I believe Dennis calls this 'Cross-Packaging' as all crossed or mixed up and not addressing the correct item.
