For example, I would prefer having a female professor over a male professor. And getting into an altercation with a man absolutely terrifies me. I think i just feel inferior. What do you think? Am I doomed for life?

I felt this way for many years, but I was molested when I was 3 years old.
Honey, only you can fight this. We are here to support you!
Look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself "men put their pants on backwards when they are in the dark just like you."
You can and will win!
When you realize, no one is any better or any worse than you are and you can walk tall and proud!
Men have feelings just like we do but they are taught from an early age to hide them, were as girls are encouraged to express them.
That is the only difference and you want to know why?
Because "men can put their pants on backwards when it is dark, just like I can!"

Maybe have you ever been sexually abused? That sometimes causes male intimidation. Like, I know a girl who was sexually abused, and she was like, terrified of men/boys for a long time. Now she has pretty much gotten over it, and is OK around guys. I think just give it time, you will relax. I am more comfortable around boys cuz I have a brother, so I know what boy attitudes are like!
(p.s. No, I don't think that you are doomed for life...lol!)

No, you are not doomed for life. Don't ever let a man intimadate you or let them have power over you. Men are human beings also. You'll slowly get over it as you get older. This happened to me as well. The best thing that you can do is to keep in mind that they're human and although they're men, don't get intimadated by them. You define who you are and continue to stand your ground- even if it is a man or a woman. I hope my advice helped.

No honey,you're not doomed for life.That's maybe because you haven't had enough re;ations with men or you haven't got a clear picture of them.I believe getting a boyfriend will help you out,but be careful what boy to chose.

I don't think a person that goes by hotmamacita would be intimidated by anyone or anything. If that is the way you feel, talk to a therapist. There is more to what your problem than what you are saying.

you might just be a shy person, and that is totally alright. alot of people are shy and more comfortable with the same gender as they are. you're not doomed for life, just practice talking to guys. you really have to push yourself, but you may find that it will be worth it!

It sounds like you had an abusive childhood, and a serious need for therapy, you should not go through life feeling afraid.

no, first of all, you got to know that there was probably a bad experience of you wit a guy before in your life, and you also got to know that not all guys are like that. people who say they are are just plain stupid. you have to gain trust in people again. start talking with them little by little, until you get to see a connection wit guys, and start to understand that they are not there to harm you. most people are probably like you, and dont want to hurt people. and by most, i mean 99% so theres not much to worry about, learn to distinguish people and learn to know people first before you actually start to get terrified of them. remember, most people are like you, so they might be scared, or just want to be friendly with you. so just chill.... xD
