About this listen

When a woman or a father attacks a naive male, he immediately opens himself up and takes the attack right into himself. "Oh, yes, that is true. I am really bad!" It does not occur to him that the attack may be something quite different. Maybe the woman or father is angry at something else and is displacing or projecting the anger onto the man. The naive male takes in the attack, feels the wound, and then bends over, psychologically. When the bull comes, the naive male wears a red-vested stomach. He just stands there and takes it. However, some women might say, "Why didn't you just jump aside? Then we could have gone to the movies."
