Some people like to go on long walks or worse still, hike. I like, prefer and insist on short walks. That has a lot to do with the ever deteriorating ligament damage in my ankles, but also it has to do with time. Long walks are like almost everything in life, a commitment that I am not willing to make. I won't be inspired to be romantic with a date just because we spent 2 and a half hours sweating in the woods together. That would be like if I developed an all encompassing obsession with engineering after tying my shoes and realizing that Back to Future told us the shoes would tie themselves by now. Maybe it's not exactly the same but it would still be a huge commitment that I would not want to make either way. I've had plenty of female teachers and male for that matter, tell me that if I committed to my work I would be just so much better off now. A lot of those teachers were art teachers. If commitment is all it takes, then how come there has never been a female Michealangelo? Where is the female Da'Vinci? There hasn't even been a female Basquiat. So if you take history seriously, you might think that the commitment issues aren't on the male side of things after all.
