Anyway, I was thinking about it and it seems to me that there is the tendency in our culture to equate "manliness" with the John Wayne ideal of "strong and silent" and what we mean by "silent" is someone who is reserved in their expression of emotion.
Gee, ya THINK?!? you're just waking up to this now??? sh!t, this is probably the root cause of most of our neuroses. good grief.
anyway, I still don't get wtf happened w/ NG? Seemed like a nice fellow? what happened?
