Boys = Confusion

I've been thinking a lot about boys lately. I don't get 'em. And it's not for lack of trying. I can't begin to understand what it must be like to be so easily visually stimulated. Is it merely societal conditioning? Is it hormonal? Why are males struck incompetent in the presence of a beautiful woman? Why is what turns them on and what they want seem to be different? Maybe those of you on T can shed some light on this as your chemistry alters. I've always thought that FTMs will make better men for having been women. Perhaps we all need a little trans in our lives to make us better humans.

On a similar theme.... why are we so taken by the surface? Why is it so easy to be fooled into thinking certain things are sexy and not others? A friend is recently thinking a lot about "Thrall", the sparkly/shiny that sucks us in. It's dangerous for our souls and for our relationships with one another.

The theologian in me wants to go off and get all anthropological (theological anthropology is rockin' my world). We are created for relationship and we can't seem to get it right. At all.
