You all have heard of Ear Worms, right? Those songs that get into your head and you just can’t get rid of them?
Well, I have brain worms. Thoughts, questions, things that just pop up in my brain that I just can’t seem to resolve.
All kinds of questions.
But lately the question that is keeping my attention is:
How can men and women communicate effectively, and honestly as equals.
Now that bunch of words can actually be reduced to:
How can men learn to not be dicks to women.
I get that.
Here is an example:
The other day a friends partner posted a loving comment to her. I of course loved the picture he posted and I commented on how adorable she is.
Another friend commented that she is also a wonderful mother, and person.
I got to thinking about that. And my friend is a wonderful, intelligent, caring person.
Am I looking at this with too critical of an eye, or am I looking at this a little too late as I should have been more critical with how I have interacted with women in the past.
And please do not think that I am being facetious. This is a real concern that I have, being the father of two daughters.
What say you, world?
