I'm not encouraging violence or whatever but I've heard many men in my life express exactly this.

That when they see a weak man be it physically or emotionally they become disappointed in that man for making the male gender look bad, they then have an urge to beat up that man to hopefully make them stronger and make them stand up for themselves.

They have expressed they don't accept weakness in other men and will do anything in their power to make those men stronger even if it's bullying them or whatever.

I work security for a large facility. I got a call for a man washing his disposable cup in a sink in the bathroom for over 20+ minutes. I responded with sirens to this call. My reasoning behind this: this person may be having a mental health crisis or potentially experiencing a psychotic episode. It isn't very stable, rational behavior to wash a styrofoam cup in a sink for that long. Plus, there were cars in my way and I was trying to bypass them to get to the scene.

It seem to me even Governments are upset about their body image lol 😆

Society needs to change for the better it's behaving like children, and people need to grow up.

I'm not a Naturist because I wear clothes to keep myself warm, and Society has hang ups on the subject.

If we are upset about our own body image because we have not looked after ourselves with exercise and a recommended diet, should we force everyone to believe nakedness is evil lol.

Naturism does not judge if you are fat, thin, tall, short, black, blue, green, white, or whatever, people need to accept what they are.

Though if everyone were naked people would take better care of themselves and Society can then move forward.

Seeing someone naked how does that make you feel?

What is your opinion?

Unfortunately I have to choose my words carefully lol.

According to what I heard from a writer, the idea that the British abolished slavery out of morality or Bible verses is a total fairy tale. It was entirely about sheer terror and cold, ruthless math!

When slave rebellions in Haiti and Jamaica spiraled out of control and white masters started getting their heads chopped off and skins peeled, the empire's throne shook. Demographics reached a point where the slave population vastly outnumbered the masters; every night, sleep was ruined by the stress of "will our throats be slit tonight?" So the real issue wasn't enlightenment, it was survival.

And of course, there's the financial side of it: A slave is a capital asset. If they get sick, die, or perish in a revolt, all your money goes down the drain. Between feeding, housing, keeping them under lock and key, and patrolling them, security costs completely eclipsed the profits. With the Industrial Revolution on the doorstep, the cheap wage-labor model—which didn't rebel, didn't revolt, and could just be fired when sick—forced the clumsy, expensive machinery of slavery into the history books. Underneath the veneer of civilization, it was always just fear and a calculator!
