The Art of Destroying Men and Women
M. Zakyuddin Munziri

Originally written in Bahasa Indonesia.
We, humans, are shaped by many different things.
Men are born to swallow pain raw. Forced to be strong by circumstances. Fighting for the people they love. All of this they endure with a smile. The sting, they hide in the darkness of night.
Men do not ask for material repayment for what they fight for. They ask for nothing, except one thing: that their struggle be appreciated.
When their struggle is appreciated, their heart will bind tightly to the tree that shelters them.
Conversely, if all the pain they endured for so long means nothing, they are fine. They will simply pack up. Walk away. Surrender themselves to the embrace of time. Direct themselves wherever fate leads.
Women are born as creatures who love beauty and praise. If their appearance is belittled, their wounds run deep. Even if it is only conveyed through words. Everything is no longer the same.
If that is the way to hurt her, it is also the way to melt her heart. Praise for her beauty. Women dedicate their lives to looking beautiful. And women are the true owners of beauty.Ā
