Respect or lack of it

I confess that the biggest reason that I’ve lost respect for partners in my past is entirely due to courage. If they showed it, to be precise. So many of them believed that all they had to do was be physically strong or have money and that was enough to earn my respect. But all of them failed when it came to the courage it takes to be real. To be vulnerable and honest about your feelings and who you truly are. All the rest of it means nothing if you can’t do that. So I don’t care if you can lift the biggest log in the forest if you don’t have the courage to be real.

and beautiful place in our mentality. But the old street slang saying is very insightful. "Who is running you? Your little man hanging between your legs, or your big man who is supposed to be between your shoulders." The ancient Vedic and Buddhists were well aware of this. They call it our Chakra's energies.

We just know better

Women say they want men to be open and vulnerable with their feelings, however when a man does this the woman is usually put off and looks at him as being weak. Men not doing this has nothing to do with a lack of courage. We just know better. The only woman most of us can trust with being vulnerable is our own mothers and sisters. Even with them we don't always really need to express our emotions. They know us intuitively.
