When some women felt fear, they covered it with an iron grate of courage, I thought. Men might be dangerous, but they were very often unperceptive. If fear only rumbled through a woman’s soul and glittered through her eyes, then perhaps the man she feared would not be aware it was there at all. He might even think that she was entirely confident, dauntless. He might believe her veneer of bravery. Kelsey Brickl
About This Quote

You can be fearless when you are afraid or when you are sure of yourself. This quote talks about how women use different ways to hide their fear from men. Men are very often unperceptive and they have a very hard time seeing what is actually going on inside a woman's soul. Either way, the quote is talking about how men are usually unaware that they are being lied to or that a woman is being threatened.

The best way to handle a man who is being threatened by a woman, is to show it through your actions, not your words. It's often better to show fear than to let the man know you are afraid.
