The purpose of a man is to serve the needs of women and her children, these are his protectorate. If a woman is jealous of those abilities in the man which serve her needs, which abilities she her self does not have, or resents needing the man in the first place, she will refuse to operate in the man those abilities which make a man a man, or actively suppress them. "No thanks, don't need any of that around here!" Properly targeted aggression is one of them, no safe environment can be produced without properly targeted aggression. The basic operating principle of a Master of Offense is to seek danger before it seeks him and his. He is on the offensive about the environment. The purpose of motherhood is to invent dangerous games for their male children and to teach their daughters how to do the same. When the abilities in a man are suppressed by the mother during the formative years, the man will turn his agressions towards other men and towards woman and eventually towards civilization as a whole. This will of course give women something to natter about and criticize in the men, which acts to further cover their jealousy which created the situation in the first place. No woman fears a man she is not jealous of. Except those men raised by other women who were jealous and suppressive :). The idea that men have something wrong with them that women don't, is something that women have wrong with them that men don't.
