In our civilization, men are afraid that they will not be men enough and women are afraid that they might be considered only women.

I think it's chauvinistic to think that women don't like to get scared.

I used to be scared of women. When I was very young they terrified me, but discovering the female universe was incredible and still is to this day, as you never stop learning about them.

The only men who aren't in fear of women's reactions are usually men who aren't born or who are dead.

Fear of men's judgment manifests itself in competition for men's approval.

I think that many people are ashamed when they feel afraid. There's this thing in our society that you're not allowed to feel scared. You have to be a man and put on a brave face, but we all have fears.

There is a biological power that is intrinsic to the woman, to the female condition. Because you are able to give life. You are the reproducer of the species. Men feel very weak in front of a woman because a woman is capable of eliciting a number of instincts in a man. And that is what has made men very nervous about women.

Men do weird things when they experience fear. It's like a fight-or-flight thing.

Women need a reason to have sex. Men just need a place.
