What's To Be Afraid Of?

Sometimes it just seems like people have a childlike need to be Afraid Of The Dark. (Nyctophobic) Or, in this example, Afraid Of The Stranger. (Xenophobic)


Sorry, but I find it quite impossible to believe that the "Desperadoes" in this video are a threat to your life, limb, or (most horrifying possibility) pocketbook. Nor are they likely to rape your women. Or you. It's probably about as reasonable for most men to believe they're attractive to homosexual men as it is for them to believe they're attractive to heterosexual women. Or, in other words: Don't You Wish!
Maybe it's a Christian thing. Here in the Land Of Smiles, a Buddhist country, they seem to take a more relaxed view on matters of personal freedom. More tolerant of other humans, perhaps?
