I am male by nature. I strive to live up to its heights, and refuse to live down to its lows. I will always see women as fellow creatures, worthy of my love and respect, and I will always see those unwilling to do the same as my enemies. When women heap abuse on me, I smile, grateful they have the ability to do so rather than being intimidated by other men. To be a man is to suffer in silence, to take quiet pleasure in the pleasure of others. All else is sophistry. Men like women exist to love others, so how can I hate anyone who is one or the other or even something beyond such labels? We define ourselves, fools all, when it is the desire to see others happy that makes us human, gives us the thrill of living. I pray that happiness finds you, ladies, whether men are involved or not. For me, to be a man is to want to best for others even when they don't want anything to do with you.
