Drooling= ogling =more than a momentary glance

I disagree that violence is "driven" by testosterone, but if it is, who weilds the control? The man as you claim in the former part, or testosterone?

A man controls how he reacts to the surge in the hormone in his body, by using his cognitive abilities.

People shouldn't feel pressured to awkwardly ignore attractive passersby or feel restricted in what they do with their partners. I feel that jumping to conclusions or not accepting all thoughts, feelings, and desires of your partner as valid is a red flag that something could be done to improve the security of the relationship.

In a commited relationship, one has chosen *a* partner. If one wants to not feel *pressured to awkardly ignore attractive passerby,* one should not be in a commited relationship. It's pretty simple.
Appreciation of beauty - aesthetics, is one thing, but it is
classless, to *ogle* women. It objectifies them - making them less than human beings.

People in relationships: there are people more attractive than you and your SO, period. Deal with it. You can act apprehensive, offended, ignored, hurt, whatever when it happens, but just know you don't have to and that relationships and love and in a separate league than attractive passersby.

I assume you meant that relationships & love *are* in a separate league than attractive passerby, but you seem to be saying that someone in a *love relationship* should be able to include attractive passerby. This is contradictory. |
