The posts in the previous thread made me think a lot and I feel like I am closer to the root of my issues with women than ever before. I also realized that this is not only social programming but also the fact that I don't want disappoint my family by becoming a jerk with women and breaking with traditional matters in regard to women. And under the surface it seems like there is only a binary choice between being the super nice guy with a "clean slate" or becoming a jerk who is abusive and use women without caring about them at all - even if I know there is not only the binary choice and there is a lot of space between the two extremes.
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.
