Traps are guys who do their damnest to look and sound like cute girls, so they are effectively "masquerading as something they are not" in the most literal sense. It's even the origin of the word, isn't it ? Faking it so well straight guys fall into the "trap". I realize they have become increasingly popular in recent years, but this part remains unchanged.

I honestly fail to see the point. If you’re attracted to female features, go for women. If you’re attracted to male features, go for men. But to take a male only to emasculate the living daylights out of him, and somehow manage to get turned on by the result ? What could possibly be the logic in that ?

I think you unconscious nailed it with the "To me, men are kind of ugly creatures" line. In today’s feminism-driven society, masculinity has been culturally degraded into something shameful and disgusting, by these very same people who pretend to be fighting for equality.

This is total nonsense, of course. Without the backbones of masculinity, mankind who have gone extinct literally ages ago. And after half a century of prosperity-induced softening up, western societies are now being slowly eaten alive by badass foreign cultures that they no longer have the balls to oppose, while continuing to push the sissifying agenda ever louder.

What utter madness ^ ^;

In truth, masculinity and feminity are every bit as important and valuable, both have existed all along because they complete each other in a vital way. This was crystal clear in harsher times, but too much comfort for too long made us lose sight of the most obvious realities.

Just like the fall of Rome. They were the strongest empire the world had ever known, until their men turned into women and hordes of real men tore them apart, looted the empire bare and reduced their wives and daughters to pleasure dolls and broodmares.

The historical repeat seems pretty damn predictable from there, but I guess we are too far in the decaying process to change direction now, like I’m pretty sure many smart romans must have seen the end coming, but couldn’t wake up the others before it was too late.

On a side note (that actually brings us back to the real subject ^ ^), I realize now that our disagreement concerning Lawrence’s perspective on having sons was primarily due to diverging understandings of the word.

First, it is important to understand that Lawrence’s character is anchored in strong Yin/Yang gender dissociation. To him they are mutually exclusive, that’s why he invariably remains a manly man in body and mind despite the ability to take on virtually any properties at will.

So if he were to have sons, it would be actual sons, not daughters with penises. I’m sure the latter category would be more than happy with his towering awesomeness, precisely because they think and feel like women. But Lawrence is a big traditionalist regarding gender identity, so he finds the notion of trappy sons too repulsive to even consider. So in this context, you are indeed correct that the reason for not having them is entirely personal.
