Intimacy? 2. Sexuality? 3. Vulnerability? 4. Honesty? 5. Authenticity? 6. Coherence? 7. True-Peace-Making? 8. Authentic-Conflict-Resolution? 9. Authentic-Personal-Integrity? 10.

Perhaps it is because Domineering-People are lacking in significant: experiences, conceptual-frameworks, ideals, values, principles, concepts, hopes, aspirations, goals, and intimately related realities --- in terms of which to address the above twenty numbered items. Perhaps it is because The-Domination-System forbids open and honest dialogue about the above twenty numbered items; they are taboo. Perhaps is it because to talk about the above twenty numbered items in any way which will elicit significant respect --- one must be willing to be VULNERABLE by LETTING-GO-OF-BEING: able, prepared, willing and ready to defend-oneself-unilaterally in ways which entail coercion and/or violence. Such VULNERABILITY is unthinkable! If you cannot think about doing some-thing; one cannot do the-thing well, and maybe one cannot do the thing at all! What chance is there then for cooperation?
