Carol, what women might call vulnerability men would call empathy. The root problem is within the word itself.. "vulnerable" something most men are, in their agressive thoughts, very aware of. This suggests to a man that he's better for being weaker, which is generally unacceptable unless its part of a strategy for winning a battle, or for judo, or for increasing one's senses. A woman's sense of the word vulnerable is more like a man's sense of the word empathy, to open oneself to being sensitive to others.. especially her, and thus the sexiness of a man who's embraced anothers feelings. One could probably put together a list of words which have different color of meaning to women than to men. Jim
