stubborn attitudes
stubborn attitudes Men and feelings, huh? Now there's a subject and a half and I'll try to express my thoughts on the matter as best I can, though it's not easy. First of all because each of us will have a different idea, and also because I'm a man. Most men seem to spend their whole lives hiding behind a mask of false bravado which covers a whole plethora of ordinary human insecurities. By revealing any truth about themselves, they render themselves liable to judgment by others and possibly questioning, thereby causing them to examine and question themselves, and therefore show weakness. If a man shows any weakness, other men will bully him until he either goes away, dies, or stops showing those signs of weakness. It's the law of the jungle, the playground, the workplace, the pub, in fact anywhere you see men or males of other species together. I feel that it is a great shame and a symptom of modern life that in this day and age an act of kindness is seen as an act of weakness. By going out of my way to help somebody do something, like help pick up their shopping they dropped on the pavement, the ignorant and badly educated chavs of this land will call me a fool (only using stronger terminology) and generally give me a hard time. If I beat nine bells of shit out of that same stranger and steal their wallet, I'll get respect from those people. Strange, huh? Men who are secure within themselves have less trouble talking about their feelings as they won't care so much what somebody else thinks, especially if they are martial arts instructors. It's also about ego and how mighty a person feels. I can talk about my inner feelings but then I'm very happy within myself and have no discernible issues of machismo to overcome. |
