One thing that always confused the shit out of me is how my body reacts when slapped, especially by a woman.
i have no fear of physical confrontation.
I can take a beating and keep fighting, i'm not the one to flinch or scour away if sliced or have bones broken.
...but without fail, i almost immediately tear up if slapped. WTF?, it usually takes a few seconds, then my eyes start to feel warm and moist, but then quickly after that rage kicks in full force.
I think it's the fact that i know i can't rape the living shit out of a woman, especially a person who i cared for, that puts me in a mentally compromised position. In a way, forcing yourself to be a bitch.
...but to address women psychology, they are good at getting under your skin. They can be surgically malicious and mean. Their words can feel like combat knives jabbing your nutsack in rapid succession.
You have to disengage, and leave. You can only take shit for so long before your inner gorilla bursts out in hulk rage.
