Does being seen as formidable, worthy of being respected and worthy of being taken seriously rely upon being able to PROVE !! that you are TOTALLY!!! NOT!!! A!!! WIMP!!! ?
I have struggled with having been bullied a great deal as both as a child and an adult. I am someone who does not like vulgarity, nastiness and belligerence for the sake of being belligerent , confrontational and ornery. I also am not someone who wants to run towards heated situations.
I'd rather be safe, perhaps I tend to be overly focused on being secure and safe! Yet, I do believe it is vital not to yield on things that you believe are true! It is important to be a champion and an advocate for the put-upon and the mistreated, I also believe that is a moral obligation to be a foe of and a thorn in the side of physical, verbal and emotional bullies!
Yet, I do not like physical combat and I do not want to face being struck, So, Is it vital to prove that you are physically tough, imposing and intimidating? If , as a man You are NOT able to do so, Should you expect to be mocked, made a fool of and SO not taken seriously?
