I think that what gets lost in these discussions is that feelings of safety are really complex and really personal and sometimes have a lot more to do with something internal than something external. I feel a lot less safe than I did 10 years ago for reasons having to do with a combination of growing out of my adolescent fearlessness and some personal trauma.
And I'm still the same person, 10 years apart. With different people the differences are more complicated.
