About those men who are pretending tough guys really desparately.

typo: it might not be needless to say, but lacked "about" and "u". Excuse me.

>I think people who have to care their secrity/freedom of their devices are famous public figures.

A lot of movie stars and celebrities in America have gotten their iPhones hacked, and their nude pictures were stolen off their iPhones and put on the internet. So, they should be concerned about security/freedom of their devices. But I guess they are not as concerned as they should be. They still keep putting nude pictures of themselves on their iPhones.

In my opinion you have 2 kind of people: 1) searching the meaning of something and trying to create a lifestyle of it. 2) following some idol and trying to mimic that lifestyle.

Most of the famous people fall in the second category, and they have the "power" to influence others. So they don't think about free/non-free, they think more about do I get paid or not? So they are easy targets for some big companies marketing team. And those big companies spoil them with non-free gadgets and pay money to use their hardware and to ignore the rest. And because of the power the famous have, many people will also try to mimic their behavior.

It would have cleared the reason and I agree mostly. When I was 20s, I had some idols. One is Ryu Murakami who is one of the few normal Japanese authors. I was thinking him as like my father. You may know Haruki Murakami. I don't like his works very much. His works seem to be intended to console us. It lacks energy or exciting something. Ryu Murakami doesn't console us. Like whatever happens, I enjoy life.

Another one was Hidetoshi Nakata. He was the idol of our generation. He was the first Japanese footballer who was appreciated in Europe. He survived on his skill of football and languages. After all, he was isolated in the National football team with maybe other team mates' jealous. He is clever and speaks straight. There were not other players who played in Europe except one who played a small italian club. I guess they had not communication skill, too.

Nitpicking and making excuses for making one-to-many situation is one of the easist things, even shool girls or rotten ladies can do. I have heard from an old lady about her work environment that there are three men, when an unspecified man's absence, the other two keep backbiting eternally.

Anyway he was an idol but I think many Japanese was desiring to see his miserable end of the career. And it happened acutually. They chose it than win. I think that the national football team was always reflecting something of society and it was the biggest attraction.

I think something is derailing now but "Cool! I want to become like her/him" is not a totally bad thing, I think. Natural and healthy and it is a wonderful thing. A human being is impressed by other human being. If it was Hitler, there would be something problems but it might be my excuse. I was told that my speaking is the same as Ryu Murakami's one by a girl when I was 20s.
She was a fan of him too and it was englaved on my memory strongly. I think I got my words now but from scratch seems to be very difficult might be my objection. I didn't buy something they idols used, though.

By the way I have watched Altman's Prêt-à-Porter. Crazy people were making the mode. I surely wear what I want to and feel a sort of fear to see many people wear the same cloths. Japanese have tendency to slap a conspicuous thing down terribly. So same cars, same fashion, same living style... then Haruki Murakami consoles them. It is good, everyone is the same... Let's wear the same cloths... No way.

I keep Eyes Wide Shut playing back recently for learning English.
There is a rumor that Kubrick has said that the movie was a failure because Tom Cruise had messed up it. But I think that he has acted an aphasic doctor excellently.
Though, Kidman seems better.
Especially the last scene is a good example of tipical talking of aphasic people. This is not a laughing matter. It causes a war. But communication is hopelessly difficult. Many people seem to regard communication as not a difficult thing but I think that that is one of the most difficult things. We should not underestimate the difficulty.

Many men run away from facing reality. Reality is crushing. Facing reality is not a too dificult thing but avoiding or running away from it is easy. It is also crushing in another sense, though (especially for others). I am sure the prior reason is their fear, shame, so they put on makeup to avoid facing the cruel reality. They men choose to evade themselves (this is a unethical/bad thing... no doubt about it...) and to avoid showing their faces to others (I need a mask...).
Of course they would never be able to communicate normally. But they would be able to pretend a tough guy (until a crisis happens, then to be exposed). Some girls might be cheated by appearance. They are going to have a miserable marriage. I have seen them.

Experience is not a thing that we can learn from books or websites. Getting near to reality as possible as he can, again and again, then he is getting it by slow degrees. There is no reason that they cowards can have such courage. I am starting to realize that is an inherent nature. I was terrified, I felt ashamed, I never show my face again... he can do it. There are any numbers of excuses. For family reason, for that, for this. Then become to be like, I am angry because I think it is your (his wife) fault...

A bout de souffle.
But please don't desire/try to involve us in your hell just because we fight against the shame, or we conquered the shame. We also really minded to show such a pitiful face to other people. We also have a decent something to feel shame, you may not know. So I don't like cowards.
So they pretend a tough guy really desperately.
I don't have interest in such a man.
If he is teen, it would be ok, if 20s, it might be ok, it depends, if 30s, I would avoid him, if 40s, 50s... they are coming near actively to involve us in their hell. It is a pretty hard job just to avoid them, indeed. We can't help them, seriously. So I assume the youth basically.

Coverting that crushing reality into energy, always. If you don't want to smile like them.
The doctor who Cruise acts won't be able to show his real face to his wife then will keep finding poor excuses. For that reason, for this... anyone would be tedious to have to listen such an excuse. Would the wife be able to change him? But obviously that is a gentlemen first job because inherently, men's nature is giving something to women. Women return the something to men. only in my opinion. It might hold only for Japs.
