A Letter to My Daughter About Young Men

I never felt like there was pressure to be a sex-crazed asshole coming from other men per say.

The issue I always has it seems to come from women for whatever reason in my life. I keep reading online and hearing that it’s the other way around, but my life is just perplexing.

I would say a lot of people in life are just looking for someone to beat the shit out of them so they can get off, or are looking to beat the shit out of people to get themselves off.

I bet if I looked into these peoples lives I would see a pattern of abuse or rape, but it just seems like everyone alive is so badly bruised that all they can do is go down a path of endless destruction.

So my point is, I am not sure how exactly I am supposed to stay a good person, when people hate me for not being mean enough to them.
