I think throughout the day of how people are trying to control me/influence me/affect me in a multitude of ways. Men, by looking intimidating, tough testing me, alpha testing me, strutting around like they own the place, trying to garner validation. And women, on their level trying to get my attention through their looks and gaining validation that way. At the end of it all, is it really just people trying to control other people in order to gain validation about themselves? Therefore trying to affect everyone around them on some emotional level?
