Regarding your concern

Regarding your concern: know the history and contact. As to our present circumstances, I don't know. Believe me, it's not as though I'm rushing to get informed..
I doubt I can guess that what would likely feel would be something other than outright anger, though painful. Also, in a personal manner I respect you.

I'm not going to hide; I'm not the type to. But I'm usually much more discrete about feelings of care.

I intensely find myself in you. I'm willing to take risks, careless risks.

I want to share more starkly intimate things, with you.
I don't know why I'm mentioning this moment.. if that's appropriate or if I'm just drunk on Dream tonic.

Masculine Fear - An examination

Men who fear women; who can't understand their own role in society; who were never taught to love women and refuse to love themselves since such a thing would be "unmanly".. these are the men who attack.



They attack out fear and frustration. They hurt with words and fists as submission to a system where they live in constant fear of emasculation. They threaten with word and demeanor because they've been taught that to be a man is to be frightening. They've been taught fear is the ultimate form of manhood. This is because they have lived in fear and have accepted it as sustenance.



Learn to feed from love. It is true sustenance.
