A comfort zone denotes that limited set of behaviours that a person will engage without becoming anxious. Alternatively denoted as a "plateau" it describes that set of behaviours that have become comfortable, without creating a sense of risk. A person's personality can be described by his or her comfort zones. Highly successful persons may routinely step outside their comfort zones, to accomplish what they wish. A comfort zone is a type of mental conditioning that causes a person to create and operate mental boundaries that are not real. Such boundaries create an unfounded sense of security. Like inertia, a person who has established a comfort zone in a particular axis of his or her life, will tend to stay within that zone without stepping outside of it. To step outside a person's comfort zone, he must experiment with new and different behaviors, and then experience the new and different responses that then occur within his environment.
This image strikes me as highly enigmatic, far from the world where deep emotional responses between people of the same sex are but rarely viewed sympathetically.
