- friendship as belief in pain of others. one pain in two bodies (i cannot feel your pain or pretend to know it, but i believe in it and it hurts me too).
- romantic relationships as tied to intimacy with body (both ownership and vulnerability).
- "interest" as curiosity and the desire to understand
- also, "interest" as exploration/exploitation. your body is a wilderness that i map and then own.
- familial ties as blood-bound. fraternity as friendship metaphor due to common substance.
