It doesn't make you less of a man.

Me too I can't kill chicken or goat. Because I fear them. grin grin grin I don't have a little bit of sympathy for them, I just fear them.

But not cockroaches and wall geckos cheesy I'll slam their head.

Nothing is absolutely wrong with you. Some people just do not like blood. I remembered when I move out, I was told nursing makes money but I told my uncle I will be the last dude to be a nurse cos the sight of blood will make me pass out. I am glad I stood my ground then cos I would have being the worst nurse to ever walk on this planet.

Recently I've been very bothered about myself. I'm a guy of around 30 but some things that still worry my heart is really disturbing. I will start like this.

1. Something embarrassing happened some time last year when I travelled home for visit. They bought a goat and was looking for who to kill it, me knowing I'm the most senior man at home jejely went into ghost mode, everyone started looking for me, in the end I had to come out but shamelessly told them I can't kill it. They had to call a 16 year old opposite neighbour to do it while my younger ones helped him hold the goat. I couldn't even stand the sight of seeing the goat struggling for life while receiving knife in the throat. I left there immediately.

2. You might think it's normal for goat until I tell you that I can't kill a chicken or rat, last Christmas, I badly wanted to buy a life chicken because I beleive it's more healthy, but who will kill it? Bae was around, I don't want any embarrassment so I jejely bought frozen chicken . There is a wall gecko strolling around my room for weeks now, but I can't kill it, it becomes embarrassing any time I have a visitor

3. The most recent is, there are two birds trying to build a house in my lobby, I kept destroying the house but they didn't give up, it got to a point, I felt bad for the poor birds, what if they don't have a house? what if I'm the one building a house with all my strength and government keeps destroying it? I had to leave them to build. My neighbour said he killed the birds that tried doing that in his house but me can i do that? No. i just tire.

4. Lastly, When travelling and there's an accident, people rush out to watch but I dare not else the trauma will remain for months, I can't stand the sight of blood and body cuts.

Any time I think about killing an animal, I ask myself, what if I'm the one being held by boko haram or killer herdsmen and about to be slaughtered? How excruciating the pain can be.

Any time I think about crushing a cockroach, I ask myself, what if I'm the one trying to cross the high way and dangote trailer crushes me?

So guys, am I normal? Do I need to see a doctor or a psychologist?

grin grin
I'm speechless bro grin

About the gecko, don't kill em, they feed on mosquitoes, spiders and other insects, keeping your environment free of cobwebs.

The birds are cute little creatures, they show appreciation if you drop some food for them once in a while.

Don't start spilling blood carelessly just because someone says it make you a man.

What make you a man is a working sugarcane and a pair of balls.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE VIOLENT OR KILL ANYTHING TO BE A "MAN".
YOU JUST HAVE TO RESPONSIBLE FOR CERTAIN THINGS AND LEARN TO DO THINGS THE CORRECT WAY, AND BULK UP YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

Dude you're completely normal. You have so much empathy in the wrong country. But don't change who you are, accept it and be happy.

nothing wrong with you, when I first meet my husband I don't even know he can't kill a chicken anytime I ask him to kill it he will just find one excuse like am going somewhere till I force him one day to kill the chicken upon seeing the blood he just faint, so bro you are very normal
Re: Help: I Think I'm Too Soft For A Man That I Am by encryptjay(m): 10:24pm On May 14, 2020
LMAO!
Before I started killing chickens, I was always pitying them because I am/was kinda soft cos' it wasn't easy, I fact, I prayed for the souls of the chickens before sending slaughtering them. But now, I do it without thinking twice.
I don't know how to kill mosquitoes with my hands but I can kill a cockroach or housefly with a broom.
But mehn, you've gotta rise to the occasion when next you're called to slaughter a goat grin

You are perfectly normal. I have male relatives who can't kill chicken, talk more a whole goat. You are just a very sensitive, empathic person. That doesn't make you weird in anyway.

You are truly a rare breed.

Re: Help: I Think I'm Too Soft For A Man That I Am by JastSiryin(m): 10:26pm On May 14, 2020
Honestly from what I've read, you do sound "neurotic". Not to bother though, because most peeps are in some way.

Your non-violent stance towards animals may be more fear than love-based. I've never killed a chicken in my life, i also don't like to watch animals being slaughtered. I have killed wall geckos before, but they still give me the creeps, more so snakes.

But having said this, it's important to know that many of the things which we choose to partake in, or abstain from may just be as a matter of convenience. Simply because we could afford to. And trust me, it's a very interesting game. The game being; "how many things can i avoid doing".

But if taken too far, something your mind may very well be doing, you might begin to get "boxed in". Just imagine if all the edible plants in the world were gone, and so were any frozen meat. And the only option was to hunt and kill animals, what would you have done? Would you have just sat in one place until you died of starvation? I highly doubt that.

The fact that we're civilized now and obey societal norms doesn't mean we always were. The fact that we have certain "natural dispositions" towards things doesn't mean they can't change over time. We're full of surprises under pressure. Just make sure you follow a sound rationale before doing things. Some of the things you said are reasonable, some aren't. If you thought all were, you wouldn't be here. That's my two cents!
