Young kids are doing the same thing I did, but they're doing it differently. They don't do brain surgery the way they used to do it either. ↗

Is the beauty myth good to men? It hurts them by teaching them how to avoid loving women. It prevents men from actually seeing women.

In suggesting a vision in place of a woman, it has a numbing effect, reducing all senses but the visual, and impairing even that. ↗
