Wanton Woman

It is true that I am distrusted and scorned by many women because of the ways in which I relate to their men. I will not be intimidated by a man's misbehavior. I defuse their anger with listening and attempting to help them overcome their helplessness in the face of any soft emotion. As a rule, a woman doesn't like another woman to share any emotion with her man. What a pity it is that jealousy kills so many relationships and so many people.

It is such foolishness that people turn every show of affection between members of the opposite sex into sexual attraction. Brothers and sisters pinch, punch, kiss, and cuddle with their "litter mates." I view most adults as my brother or sister. Perhaps this is seen as taking liberties, but I don't know how else to follow the imperative to "Love your neighbor as you love yourself." For this, I'm tired of apologizing.
