All black books for 2026.

One of my greatest payments in my marriage was avoiding power and control. Anything resembling masculinity, dominance, control, aggression was frowned upon. So I never pursued it. In order to keep the peace.

Unfortunately, you can only bury the power for so long until it starts to seep out. A little more ambition here. A little more instructing over there. Masculine women find this unattractive. Feminine women LOVE it. It’s like an “oh shit” moment for them.

I don’t abuse power or control. I am very fair. So when someone becomes unsettled when I show my arrogance or extreme confidence (especially in my field of study), it’s a sign that they wish they were on the same level. I’m INSPIRED by arrogant men, especially when they have fought and earned the right. “That’s going to be me, talking my shit.”

Guess what it takes to break away from the prison of society. Even the prison of your own mind. That’s right.

Power.
