The Weavers of Shared Dreams

The first light of morning creeps through the slits in the curtains, painting pale, uncertain lines across the floor. I sit with my cup, which still warms my palms, watching the steam curl and vanish into the cool air of the room—just like the images from my dream that still weigh heavy on my eyelids, refusing to dissolve fully into wakefulness. There is something strange about this state between two worlds, a sense of the soul's permeability that is strongest in the early hours. I have always known that the night is not merely a time for rest, but a stage for deep, invisible work. But today I feel it with particular clarity: a dream is not just a personal archive; it is not merely a drawer for my own tidy or cluttered memories. It is a wide-open space in which I cease to be only "I" and become part of a vast, breathing network.

The intersection point

 People of any gender can be intimidated or threatened by someone who they perceive as strong, confident, or assertive, regardless of the person's gender.

However, some women may be intimidated by strong men because they challenge traditional gender roles and expectations, which can be a threat to their sense of safety and power. For example, a strong, dominant man may make some women feel as though their opinions and decisions are not valued or heard.

It's important to note that this is a social and cultural issue, and not a universal truth or a trait inherent to all women. Many women respect and admire strong men and find their confidence and strength to be attractive and inspiring.

As with strong women, a man being strong doesn't necessarily mean he's aggressive or overbearing. Strength can take many forms, including emotional intelligence, assertiveness, and the ability to overcome challenges and adversity. Ultimately, it's up to each individual to determine their own definition of strength and what they find attractive in a partner or friend.

The intersection point where both strong men and strong women may be seen as intimidating or threatening to others is likely rooted in societal expectations and cultural norms around gender roles and power dynamics. When someone challenges these norms and defies traditional expectations, they may be perceived as a threat to the status quo, and this can lead to fear or intimidation.
