These are some men who I’d be interested in knowing
more personally. This is only a selection of a bigger list.
Some are dead. (This would include my father. We only knew of each other. I was fortunate for my first eleven years to have a grandfather who cared about me.)
Some are gay.

(Author James Baldwin helped me to begin to understand some of my own relatives and what being white means to them.)
Some are gay and dead.
Some are already in very committed relationships.
Some do not know I exist.
One thing they all seem to have in common is their
feminism (as you may know, making life right for all women ultimately
means a better life for children, men, animals, and the planet).
I respect those who oppose and are sickened by oppression in all its
forms and define manhood for themselves.
(I respect and thank God for a woman for the same reasons, opposing
oppression in all its forms and defining womanhood for herself, showing all of
us more choices.)
Back to the men. I could be on someone’s list too whose interest I am
not aware of.
