"openness...it's a type of permanent immaturity..."

Seldom are truer words spoke in this age of 'word-harm.'

Fyi - you did the right thing in not approaching him. But you already know that. That jogger guy did do the right thing in putting himself into a potentially dangerous scenario Instead of watching you do it. I would have done the same thing. That's our job.

Whatever else men do on this rock, whatever our other jobs or skillsets... we are first and foremost hunters and guardians. It's hardwired into us, whether by God or thousands of years of adaptation (or both). This is why we have the muscle mass, bone density, colder logic and fury of battle infused into our reactions and subconscious. This is indeed the realm of men. To safeguard women and children. Always.

Women have their own realms upon this Earth, and very important ones at that, just as men have theirs. The potentially dangerous, violent encounters with predators and monsters... that is our realm. It will always be ours.

God bless.
