It's a(n)   1   turn on, as we see in the movies, for a man to come to the aid of a woman.        2  , a male hero in the movies may verbally slam someone to  3   a woman's honor. Or, he may sword fight another man for her affection. In real life, men may attempt   4   things as well. After a time, though, men can get tired. They're only human beings.      By the time a man is 40 or 50, he's done a lot of psychological battling for work issues, political issues and    5   concerns.       It's refreshing for a(n)   6  woman to maturely step up and assist a man who's overly   7  .
