What is femininity to you?

[Deleted]

Femininity, to me, is a force of energy that encompasses life with love, compassion, and the inherent desire to nurture and protect what is precious, holy and beautiful. It is the essence of all that is calm, soft, expressive, and flowing. It is being emotionally connected rather than emotionally repressed. It’s about a kind of vulnerability that allows you to make that connection with finesse. It is intuition rather than calculation. Both the masculine and the feminine display strength, except masculine strength comes from tension whereas feminine strength comes from flexibility. It is also not about being submissive and appeasing. It’s about being true to yourself, finding your inner strength and self respect.

OK so Marilyn or Norma Jean was the eptiome of Femininity in her time. We are the Epitome of femininity in our times. The world changes. Society changes and perceptions change.

I kind of like being submissive though. But with self respect and respect from your lover than you are submissive to them. Not only that but thankful to you for being submissive to them.

Apeasing though. Oh yeah hon I will be appeasing but do deserve the return of the the emotion. So he can appease me to make me happy. It is a game of give and take.

Well, yeah. I meant like in the socially accepted idea of submission rather than the allowing of one to be respectfully alpha. I basically mean that femininity isn't about keeping your mouth shut and staying in the kitchen, or every other stereotypical and sexist expectations.

I think you'll like this song, by the way:

Pretty good song but not really my genre. I don't know how to add a video being all computer illiterate and such but check out Halestorm's Mz Hyde on youtube. The official video in high def. That is my kind of genre and lyrics. I wouldn't say it is totally as much about femininity or insanity but kind of walks the line with an image in public and what goes on in privacy.

OK so Taka is that a new saying lie "F" it.

Ok so to be truthful, femininity to me is just being me naturally. I really can't explain exactly what it is though. It's just the way I feel and that affects my whole life regardless of anything else

What is it?

For me??

Can't say for you.

Satin and lace, candles and incense. Nurturing intuition, unparalleled love.

Sensual and perceptive, instinct. The protection of mothers love, the nurturing of dreams.

Nylon on nylon, lovers entwined. Or hot breath on the neck, a surrender to passion, a letting go, the wildness of she taking what she wants, deep into herself, until her body writhes in ecstasy.

Quiet and demure with hidden strength, she overcomes all with her love. Magic fills her house, a home it becomes, paradise in another world, the one she creates for her loves.

That is femininity to me, it is my perception of it, it is priceless, it is my dream.

Love to all here.

I think true femininity equates to Purity of heart, at least in my mind.
I'm not sure it exists any longer.? 
100-150 years ago women were different.
This modern society with its subconscious visual temptation and messages have to me poluted the average human mind and
robbed it of a certain kind of simple beauty that may be non existent any longer..

Just my view..
Since I've been doing various women's fashion pages and blogs, I've noticed very strongly the way women are striving for and desiring to be more equal to men in almost every way, and I don't know if they recognize it, but they are slowly giving up those qualities that are the pure essence of being female..

OK so Taka is that a new saying lie "F" it.

the keyboard on my phone often drops down, causing me to post before finishing my writings.

so i tried finishing that long and profound post, and then, finally, when i was about to post it... phone refused to do that.

already forgot what i was writing, femininity is nothing compared to the rage i have to quench in order to save my phone.

That the girls work so hard and compete with men at work...so hard on them.

My wife stayed with the kids till we went kinda broke and they went to school.

We wanted her soul touching them, not a babysitter. It was hard, but worth it.

It's shameful one person isn't enough to pull it off now.

And how do singles do it?

I can't imagine.

LOL. Maybe things happen for a reason. Femininit is better than saying "F" it. I think, if you don't mind instead of all the bad words I will use "Feminine It". Sort of like, " I love wearing makeup, Feminine It". I like nice lingerie so Feminine It". and on it can go.

That post was priceless though.  I learned a new word to curse some one like, "Feminine You", "Feminine off", go "Feminine Yourself" and so on.  Only to buttholes though. It will blow their minds for sure.  BTW it still stars with "F" though but don't have the "UCK" behind it.

I noticed this a while ago. I think men want femininity in their partner. I think men long for the femininity and miss it.

Not talking about our brothers that are embracing masculinity because they are men but every guy that I have ever been in a relationship with was missing the femininity from ciswomen.

Ok so this is just my opinion and theories but I believe men or some of them miss the femininity in their partners. OK so it may be stereotypical and I may be a raving lunatic but a lot of guys want a feminine woman unless they are sexually oriented more as gay and actually like the masculine qualities. But a lot of guys are willing to overlook an outtie clitoris as long as the femininity is there. As long as they can feel like the stereotypical man.

I know it sounds stupid and I really don't want to offend anyone so sorry if I did, but the spectrum is vast and there are different levels of it. OK so my BF now don't want a masculine woman. He even told me he likes a little something extra but wants a girly girl.

I don't want to get chewed out by Auntie Shan again for being so dirty  So I won't go into it too much but he is definitely not bottom and I am definitely not top. But he definitely wants a female with all the hair, the makeup, the clothes, the shoes the little teddies, sexy lingerie and so on. And he likes feeling like a man. OK so I was the other woman but his other was a guy so... But he wants the feminine now. That I can give him.
