When deep wounding becomes projection becomes “journalism”. There is no doubt that men in our culture are conditioned to be deeply dysfunctional in our sexuality, but the writer of this “article”, which is really just a journal entry published, doesn’t have the ability to separate her insecurities from men’s insecurities. If I feel something, that is mine, whatever it is. If you feel something, it is yours. Until we take responsibility for our own feelings we will not truly heal. Of course, we are welcome to project and avoid them. Those men did not consciously choose their programming just like Emma Lindsay isn’t the origin of her deep insecurities. It is human conditioning and we all need as much compassion as we can muster for each other in order to heal…heal ourselves, because there is no one else. Once we take full responsibility for our own experience then we don’t need to blame other people for their wounds, we will be in true compassion, which is totally bad ass!
