In reply to anyone afraid of men?, posted by sleepygirl on June 23, 2005, at 20:24:22
I think men are very much like women: basically human. Some men are good, some are bad. Same thing with women. I don’t really believe anyone’s *inherently* evil, though sometimes I see stories on the news that challenge that belief.
I think, though, that it’s common to heave a fear of the opposite sex if you’ve had a bad experience with members of the opposite sex. I’ve been afraid of men from time to time because of some of my experiences. But most of the time I love men; I’ve been lucky enough to have lots and lots of very nice experiences with men and they usually outweigh the nastier things.
I think it’s harder to understand men if you think of them as fundamentally unlike women. It’s easier to understand them if you think of them as basically like us but with fewer curves…
