Let this thread be all the things you would ever like to know about men and things you never knew about men.

Why are some men "meterosexuals" while others shower/shave/deodarent/clean clothes and out the door... will do for them?

I admit that I'm concerned about where this thread could lead...

Please refrain from generalizations or male-bashing (Pilatus, I'm not implying that you're doing this, but a question like this could get out of control quickly)

Thanks

I think we can talk about sex as long as it's not inflammatory of men, as long as its supportive of the posters, etc. It would prolly be a good idea to say I TALK ABOUT SEX HERE hahaha so in case someone doesn't want to talk about sex they can see that and not read. =) A good healthy discussion about sex with my women friend is always good thing, for me anyway.

Well, actually, I'm terrified of men. I think they all have hidden agendas and even when I try to reason with myself rationally about this I still seem to think there are levels to their agendas. Well, so, I'm in therapy and working on that because I get angry and/or extremely frightened when one even looks at me in the grocery store.
I guess, I'd like to hear what everyone has to say in here about being able to get past this and see some better qualities in them. They can't be all bad right??

I think my fear of men was born out of a mixture of experience and my own view of what I thought they were all about. It's hard, because men have a totally differnt take on sex then women do. So I still have a hard time accepting that. I can take it or leave it, but my boyfriend feels totally different and it's hard. I've had to start setting boundries in regards to sex, not forcing myself to do it just because I know he wants it, because I was causing my own resentments at men and sex.

But it's hard, when all you hear about is sex and (expletive for breasts) when you hang out with guys. N wonder we all think that's all they want from us.

I've really had to work hard on myself to change my views and start loosing the fear. It's not easy, but it's a lot better than I used to be.

I am also afraid of men. I am afraid that they would judge me harshly, so I avoid most of them. It also scares me that they are physically stronger than me. I think it is a control thing. I'm thinking I need therapy about it because it is quite a large and consuming issue in my life.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
