Are other Males experiencing the same wariness toward Women?

Question

This is for guys, but girls can chime in. I am finding that just as I have learned as other Males to be wary of Males unless through body language, voice, tone, etc. they are not a threat or have good intentions, I am now being saturated on the street and in the media displays of harshness, power, that are equally not good. I have now become equally wary of approaching women just to not have to deal with their protected freedom of expression to give verbal, silent abuse, and hollow kindness with impunity. While I can deal intellectually with all persons, I just do not like to deal with unkind insincere women just as I do not like to deal unkind, insincere guys. I am using the same caution of wariness to not even giving any goodness unless that person warrants it. Do other guys find this to be so?

Answer 1

No. Truth be told, I am not on my guard around guys either unless I need something from them or if what I say can harm me in the long run. I believe you overthink every meeting you have with someone. You need to calm down a little and accept that not everyone wants to do what's best for you, but don't bother being on the guard all the time because they might be kind of mean to you!

Answer 2

It's understandable to have a wariness towards anyone at first; thats just the human survival instinct. Like another said, you don't want to overthink it, but  a certain amount is nessessary. If not, the rascals of this world will run all over you.

No one wants to deal with insincere and unkind persons.

Answer 3

I'm sure all of us don't desire confrontation to a certain extent in life. It's only natural for any one to avoid confrontation when ever possible, but when it's unavoidable, we usually have no choice but to defend ourselves.
