Male social conditioning encourages boys and men to aim to bed as many women as possible....so much so, that their self esteem and self worth become intertwined with the number of sexual partners they have; and when that number is low or even zero, so too is their self-confidence.

~ Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Guys, you don't have to act manly to be considered a man; you are a man, so just be yourself. You don't have to prove your masculinity to anyone.
They know too well the violent hypnosis of those who hope to possess them-- men who can smell the blood on the places where a woman is breaking.
