This man is shallow and has a shallow perception of women. His interest in women is surface level. This man has no interest in the woman’s humanity and her story. He can’t seek to understand her personality, intellect or heart. He doesn’t have the emotional intelligence to navigate a relationship with a woman. He doesn’t have the ability to have an intimate bond with a woman. He can only fake a relationship and use it to satisfy his needs.
The dehumanization of women is common in early twenty first century western culture. Women are largely seen as sexual tools, emotional support animals and a variety of occupations that bring other people comfort. The dehumanization spans race, economic background and education levels but Black women are most commonly dehumanized.
Women need to take time and inspect the well. Check his account. Make sure he’s flesh and blood and not stone. Make sure there is a supply of good character to draw from.
