Taking a break from studying Bio 701 to tell you a bit about Aristotle's great-souled man and how he never stands down to apologize, never admits his faults, and though sympathetic, never has compassion.

Yes, he sounds like a complete asshole, but his archetype reflects the ideal kind of guy every male is looking for. I'm falling more and more into obsessive idolatry of my English prof because he embodies the great-souled man to such a degree that nearly everyone in my class disapproves of him. Of course, I don't care so much for the theatrics, but thanks to his guidance, I've realized to what extent many of my male counterparts are extremely non-masculine.

How disturbingly feminine the male gender has become.

How scary this woman-driven society is, now that mothers raise their sons.

Many lack self-reflection; they rely too much on the outward opinions of others. They enjoy talking about how they feel, discussing the repercussions of their feelings. Perhaps this is the result of our chick flick subculture, the brainwashing of manipulative-by-nature women into believing that deep, meaningful conversations foster loving relationships. And men buy it. They buy the raw, uninterpreted emotions that are deep within the soul, insecurities of significant others, passions for forgiveness, Grey's Anatomy concepts of romance...

I cry for the male generation, but at the same instance, I comprehend that my de facto femininity has altogether disappeared.

Now, back to the permeability of hydrophobic molecules!
