- I would like to thank the posters who have answered my
- questions about "men's groups".
-
- From what I read it sounds like the little I thought I knew
- were generalizations/characteurizations of the sort people view
- feminism through, having gathered such images from the worst examples.
-
- These groups sound like they may have something to offer and
- they seem less unreasonable to me now.
-
- I might just try one of them someday, for now Ill just think
- about it. My own "personal myth" is a sort of a recycled
- transcendentalism that if I can look at life totally as it is, without
- help, I must just get to somewhere interesting. Having attempted this
- for years, I honestly cant deny anyone or laugh at anyone who has
- found something to help them cope with life in general. More power to
- you.
-
- Thanks again for the informative responses
