Guest guest Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Hi, I know a lot about Carl Jung. I know that he started those concepts. I know that he was into Astrology and used it for psychological insights. Reading his stuff got me interested in Astrology. Why do you say that I need to be blocked? What in the world that I do wrong? I was trying to make a point that being a highly sensitive male doesn't equate to low self esteem or other psychological problems. Unfortunately, a lot of us do get unfairly labeled because of stereotypes. That's what happened to me. There are a lot of highly sensitive males that don't have those problems. I wanted to make a point that high sensitivity is not a bad thing. Because I was trying to make my points, I deserved to be blocked from others forever. I don't understand that at all. Ah well....being a highly sensitive male helps me to treat others like I want to be treated. I didn't offend anybody here. I was just trying to point that high sensitivity in males is not a bad thing.
