Not in general. I remember when there was a time
when I was afraid of meeting woman due to the pain
they can be apart of in a relationships breakup. I
used to think I'd rather face a bear, in which I did
once, than face a woman (in a more than friendly way,
after several painful girlfriend breakups). It still
probably depends on the woman, as well as, certain
men, grizzly bears (I hear much more effort to keep
them away from camp is necessary than what animals are
present here), sharks (so, I'm very hesitant to step
in the ocean), and there is probably some other
aspects of life that would definitely challenge my
bravery. But woman now I'm afraid of is not due to
what pain they partake with my heart, but just as any
other human being, what pain they can inflict due to
poor social skills, but I'd lump these categories not
as 'afraid of women' and 'afraid of men', rather, as
'afraid of what certain human beings can do'.
As for the questions I have for you above?
Also, are you afraid of men? This might be a
dumb question due to you being the only woman for the
most part that partakes with this discussion group,
but I'd rather hear it from you.
