down the spiral ladder

what struck me in class was when someone said that men try to show themselves (their  masculinity) up against other men. and women just get dragged in as bait. like you're more of a man if you can 'get' more girls.

and then i realized that women do the same thing. show their feminity up against each other. and use men as bait. youre more of a woman if guys give you more attention.

and if this is true - and we're just mentally dualing each other - what are we doing?

both genders seem pretty insecure and misreble in their own plight. men worry about being man enough and women seem to always be on guard.

whats the point?
