Perhaps I misunderstood you, but this is the phrase I was reacting to - in such close proximity to the comment about Middle Eastern cultures - "It's just easier and better to educate men and boys instead of trying to mask our true nature." What is the "true nature" that you are referencing? Because we're all sexual beings - women no less so than men are.

I do remember you, and perhaps it was just a miscommunication, but there really are a lot of harmful narratives that basically good people are carrying around and I feel the need to challenge them when I hear them - particularly as relates to gender.

I don't doubt that adding in testosterone made you feel better but you'll see when you read the story, that how and why that happened isn't quite as you imagined.
