But to a certain extent you have to go through the same thing or something
even remotely similar. Even then I'm skeptical of empathy, unless it is a
true energetic empathy.I'll give you an example. When all my female friends
were pregnant (at various times, of course), they would complain about their
raging hormones. Now I *thought* I understood what they were going through,
what with all the menstruation hormones and all. Last year I was actually
pregnant myself and it is a whole 'nother ballgame. I had *so*
underestimated the power of those little chemicals. From that train of
thought, I find it completely silly that a man who has never felt these
chemicals could have anything other than a mechanical understanding of what
is happening. Sympathize, sure. Empathize and understand? No.
I don't even try to pretend to understand testosterone.
