I consider those men (who lose respect for a man with a woman who respects herself) to be really insecure. I know a lot of them in the extended family ... most of them are chronically and involuntarily single.
There's a difference between the two things you're talking about.
Pool is talking about dominance and submission. Irrational, you're talking someone having respect for themselves/ not having respect for themselves.
Dominance or submission aren't really definite indicators of self respect.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
