The Importance of Respect

The idea that a man cannot handle a woman who approaches him with anything other than absolute adoration and deference is very toxic. The goal is to be okay with a man never taking you seriously because he thinks that you are in awe of him. This is part of toxic masculinity. It's saying that he cannot treat you like a human being. He cannot see you as an equal. You have to subjugate yourself to get him to take you seriously and to get what you want. So sorry, so unnecessary.
