on facebook i wrote that i wanted to know what defined or embodies femininity to people. now i'm onto masculinity, thought these responses were cool, especially OUR VERY OWN KELSEEYYYYYY.

my apple dictionary just gave me the example of a "frilled blouse" under definition number one. haah....i think i'm gonna have to go with that. sounds accurate.

such a hard question! to me actualizing ideal femininity would look like having the capacity to integrate polarities, (i.e. strength and vulnerability, nurturance and aggressiveness, reason and intuition/emotion, etc.) having deep compassion, a drive to act from a place of compassion, and the wisdom to know what actions are needed.So: internal strength, unconditional love, and wisdom....but part of me also thinks the entire femininity/masculinity idea is bullshit.

my greatest embodiment of femininity is not having to define it to anyone ♥

That is a really difficult question. I don't really think there's an answer but I mean there is always that physical aspect of 1 ) we can bleed for a week without dying 2) we can grow another complete human being inside us lwith very little assistance 3) we can push said human out of our vaginas and have it magically and elastically go back to ... Read Morenormal afterwards4) we have the capacity to create breastmilk which can magically create food for another human being from nothing ( literally, if you don't eat anything your body will take fat from itself as well as the fatty acids that sit along the brain stem to support the child)But of course then there's the issue of transgender individuals who have a much more ligitimatley feminine air about them than I do and I'm actually a FBF. There are so many different answers but all in all I guess that physically all women are pretty much radically powerful super heroes so those mens better recognize.

Later I really want to type up some notes I've jotted down relating to the F-word from other classes/experiences.
