What bothers you and why?

View all responses

Men bother me because they are so violent and abusive. Even non-violent men can be abusive. It almost seems as if most of them are? Why is this? Brllum omnium contrs omnes, or everyone against everyone. This is the true state of human nature, according to Hobbes. People tend to be more violent the lower their socioeconomic status is. They are closer to the state of nature. This is evident if you compare violence rates to socioeconomic data.
