^The reason I suggested such a thing is because its seen as rather unmanly in our societies to be "afraid" (which it is not at all)- hence, to gain self-approval, us males may feel it neccesary to do something possibly damaging to strengthen reputation.
All in all, I don't think the male psyche is all that well designed for psychedelics, rigid as it can be. But the fact is, that our minds may need the most changing- I mean, I haven't seen/read about many uber violent, power-hungry woman, whereas history is replete with male tryants. Indeed, most violence in the world is a direct result of male agressive instincts- I say instinct, because it appers that males of most species have an inbuilt savagery, and I certainly know that young boys can- so psychedelics may prove more useful to males in allowing one to take a calculated risk, endure controlled trauma, ie. try and defeat our inner fears which too often become external and have a target.
I dunno- I know that in many ways men are "less" then women. I say that as a male too; I see an ability for calm in females that is rare in a man; though ofcourse I've met my share of aggro females too. Its just from my experience, I know psychedelics helped me learn to be less violent, and I was a violent little cunt when younger
But, thanks to some confrontations, head-on and violent, with the 'self', I feel less need to display physical aggression. Indeed, I've designed my life so I never really
have to employ any force/violence to get by; and I won't forget the pain I've felt and given, so I won't do it again.
