Without resorting to analogy the point I was trying to make about not being a boy is obvious. The point I was trying to make about not asking a woman to act like a girl is that if you use the sort of masculine tricks that attract the girl in a woman then you will never be able to trust or respect her because you have made a sexual contract with the part of her that is not an adult and you can't expect a child to honor a contract. Those sort of masculine tricks will work every time. They would definitely work on me but not a healthy, mature part of me. That is why I recommend that men shouldn't use them.
