THE ORIGIN OF US

We're the same, yet so different.

Of his bone am I

from my womb is he, and yet

still we are strangers

[A Shared Narrative]

You speak volumes here, and it's great.

Your archaic phrasing makes the message feel old and biblical, which just adds to the fact that the story you're telling is just that old.

It makes you feel the weight of being trapped in that paradox since time immemorial.

I think and feel there is huge difference in between women and man sexuality. But also not all women behave like women and not all man behave like man. When I was young I saw women more like sexual objects . I just follow pattern what I saw it at my home and on the streets. I stop seeing women like sexual objects when I start questioning that pattern what they gave me. Man sexuality is violent cause he is penetrator . You can see it even here how same male comments on women writing. Women power is more wise and creative. We need each other to learn from our nature's and ways. Man and women can stop feel like,strangers when they,start speak clearly about what they feel and what they,want to realy,feel. We are both of same origin but our development of our self was,diffirent. Don't stop ask questions why

You are absolutely correct. When men and women learn to communicate with one another and allow themselves to be open to conversations we will no longer be strangers. Thank you for your time and your comment.
