I still distrust men, but they have their function. XDObsidianJones said:... Still distrust the police, though. But like government, they have their function.
I do not distrust men because I am paranoid. I distrust men because too many of their previous actions have now forced me to be in the position to have to distrust them in order to not be assaulted. It is just something I always have to think about now, always have an "escape route" and a means to defend myself. The times when I did not, I paid dearly for it. Growing up, almost all my best friends were male. We played sports, video games, built forts in the woods together so it isn't like I have anything against males, I have just learned from experience that I have to be careful around them because they more often than not turned out to have ulterior motives. It sucks really that I am not allowed to be as comfortable around them as I am with the girls.
