Intimacy is a primary human need as is protection. For intimacy to occur we must be able to trust ourselves and another so that we can allow ourselves to be open and unprotected. Intimacy, not conquest, is the goal of an exchange of information. Strong negative emotions such as anger need to be expressed as a claiming of the intense feelings without being turned into weapons to attack and blame and therefore abuse one's self or another. Understanding and respect for the negative feelings should yield intimacy not abuse.
Psychological liberation is the freedom to choose intimacy.
