Quoting a TikTok I saw once “If femininity is so Natural, then why is so much of it TAUGHT?” Don’t do this ..do that ! I am a woman and it feels natural for me to want to live on my own terms ! Period 💅🏽

Exactly ! They sure are repeating it a lot for something that should be "natural".

I've been thinking about this a lot lately! LOL! I saw something about this on the Tamron Hall show a couple weeks ago. It was young women who basically only aspire to be pleasing to their husbands and BOYFRIENDS by tapping into their feminine energy! Which is basically being submissive and pleasing to the man. I was wondering is it because millennial women did the opposite, and NOW some are also complaining about the outcomes (being tired, overworked, single, no kids) or is it just a natural swing from one extreme to the next. But, like you said, women have been doing this for CENTURIES, probably MILLENIA, and it's not a good place for a woman to be in.

That's a good question ! I think it's the natural backlash after every period of susbtantial feminist advancement, it also corresponds to the general rise of fascism in every sphere of society. But those who won’t hear must feel, good luck to those girls.

i don’t know how they can’t see it, like what exemple in real life they have of this being possible for women like them? They choose to be delulu at this point.
