Found someone who understood...once

I've always had a little bit of a hope that I could find a guy around my age who understands Objectivism and who doesn't flee out of fright when they hear a woman who can stand on her own (especially in a debate). I once had a guy tell someone I was "scary", and that I had "a look in my eyes" when I talked about Ayn Rand with him. Really? Is the look of confidence now scary to some men these days? It's kind of sad. Then one day, I met someone at a party who got it. It was a weird across the room situation, he overheard me saying "who is John Galt?" and he came over to me and said "A=A?" Well too bad I never saw him again, I believe he's in the military. Well here's to hope, and knowing that at least y'all understand my pain!

    Maybe you only *thought* it was the look of confidence, but it was really the intense stare of the cultist when she recites dogma.

    In other words, look at yourself before you point fingers. I thought that's what Randists were supposed to do anyway.
