Sexuality is female. The man descends into the female principle the more sexual he becomes. Homosexuals tend toward homosexuality, as do womanizers, who in their manners are markedly feminine. The mature masculine tends toward restraint, intellectualism, austerity, and chastity. He tends not to delight in nakedness or physical contact, or in vulgar pleasures. He prefers to be plain, polite, respectful, and so forth, all of which lend themselves to a clearer representation of a man's actual worth). Vulgar men (read: sexual) mistake these characteristics as being feminine or unmanly, when in reality it is their own coarseness and sentimentality which has more in common with the feminine. In the presence of women, one becomes either increasingly disgusted at their lack of the aforementioned virtues, or eventually acclimates to them, thereby allowing their own mental sobriety to be diluted by frivolity and fruitless sentimentalism. Women trivialize or ridicule masculinity (read: masculinity, as opposed to sensuality) because their own nature is foreign to it; on the other hand, they delight in flamboyant and extroverted men, and love nothing more than to hear of a man's romantic feelings. Womanizers and feminine men tend to show off more of their bare skin, tend to take a interest in fashion and presentation, may wear excessive jewelry and accessories, or even wear make-up, all of which are highly characteristic of the feminine. It is also not uncommon to hear that womanizers have had same-sex intercourse at least once. Women find little solace in religion, philosophy, piety, and solitude, and it is the same with men insofar as they are coerced by the sexual urge. The thoughts of men like Kant or Augustine are absolutely incomprehensible to women, whose considerations remain deeply submerged within gross sensuality. Insofar as a man indulges in sexuality, whether by himself, with women, or with other men, he falls from a more masculine height into the sensible, sexual realm of the feminine. This is why chaste men accomplish so much more of lasting worth than sexual men.
