Search Results: express your feelings

Most people experience fear. However different people express it differently. Even most people who express no fear, aren't really fearless. They just know how to suppress it, or not express it. If course, I think that there is a small minority of people who genuinely never real fear, or hide it so well, they seem genuinely fearless.

There is a clear difference between adults and children when it comes to experience and expression of fear. However, what about the difference between men and women?

I think that both men and women experience fear, possibly at similar rates. It's just pure soeculation from my end, but I think with there being more equality in certain societies, the experiences of men and women converge at least a little, and therefore fears also converge.

HOWEVER

I think that women express fear more primarily because women are encouraged to express their feelings more, and fear is one of these feelings. There may also be a biological reason, as women in average tend to be more emotional than men do to a higher estrogen-to-androgen hormone ratio (which also explains mood swings during pregnancy). I don't really know about that; maybe an expert in behavior or endocrinology could enlighten me on this).

Bottom line, I think men and women experience fear at a close rate, but I'm not sure. However, women express it more.

That has nothing to do with who is better. Bravery is not gender-exclusive.

What is your opinion? (See the poll)

You find both good looking.

- The "guy friend" plays it safe for months not verbally expressing his feelings for you and he is waiting for the right time.
- The "stranger" straightforwardly tells you he likes you and what his intentions are (dating or casual sex or... etc) during the first 5 minutes of your first conversation.

I feel I'm walking on egg shells and kinda feel guilty for sharing my thoughts and sometimes facts.

I'm tired of being seen as insensitive, disrespectful, hater, racist, homophobic and Islamphobic, even though I do abhor the religion of Isalm, which is my right to have.

Has PC affected and impacted you as a person about what exactly and how you express your thoughts and feelings?

And what topics are you more concerned about what comes out your mouth and has you walking on egg shells?
