With two exceptions, all of my friends are women. I live with a women, I share my innermost troubles with women, I chill with women, I am at ease with women. It wasn't always like that. There are many problems with masculinity as currently constituted that men [and the women who love them] would benefit tremendously from. I wrote a lengthy <a href="http://positivejuice.com/2010/01/03/the-destructiveness-of-modern-masculinity/" rel="nofollow">letter to my grandmother explaining this train of thought</a>. It needs more dialogue. I would, in many ways, consider myself a feminist. I am very much like this. With two exceptions, all of my friends are women.

You know, that applies to several men I know and have dated, too, going all the way back to my teen years. One, who was quite notorious at the time for the sheer volume of his conquests, was also perfectly willing to sit and chat for hours with girls who weren't necessarily going to sleep with him; another recently let me know that it was NOT how I looked naked that first caught his interest, it was the leather motorcycle jacket with all the buttons that made him think I'd be interesting to talk to!
