2. Is art still art if you don't experience it as an encounter with another person? I don't really think it is, but I also can't really explain to you why it isn't. I just know a piece of art that didn't come from a human mind... it is literally meaningless.

3. There's clearly not one way to be a man. And anyone who thinks that there is is frankly part of the problem.
