Please don't give me ish like being competitive and fishing is masculine and giving and caring is feminine. Give me real logical answers.

Please don't give me ish like being competitive and fishing is masculine and giving and caring is feminine. Give me real logical answers.
Why don’t you just google it because what you said not to give is exactly what it is. So without defining it: being masculine= being a leader being feminine = being submissive …
example BOSS chicks are more masculine then feminine and would take a very masculine man to lead her, given they want to deal with her; because she’s not going to want to listen because she feels she is a better leader than the man in question. No woman is going to want to be lead by a man she thinks is a weak leader. Example Will Smith & Jada’s relationship.
feminine are more submissive. This is a bad word for women because it sounds like slavery. But then you say everyone can be all those things. Exactly. Now tell me, which one are you in a relationship.
Men define love to them as the woman giving them respect. Women define love as being taking care of. However when the roles are swapped with the woman being more masculine then the man and vice versa, then you get today’s relationship chaos.
Yes I do believe in masculine and feminine energies. As far as I know, a person irrespective of its gender has both the energy in itself. Masculine energy generally refers to bravery, confidence, strength, etc while on the other hand, feminine energy represents emotions, feelings, sacrifice, etc. And it really has nothing to do with our genders. Even males have both masculine as well as feminine energies and vice versa. All everyone has to do is to find balance of both energies. On basis of some energies emitted more by a person we see a male either masculine or feminine and a female with masculine or feminine energies. Its very normal and we can easily identify such people around in the society.
So by your logics a woman who defends herself or her family is really a man. And a man who cares for his family is really a woman.
Gotta love how people don't understand how such 'energy' is nothing more than a social construct what when everyone is capable of feeling and enacting on the exact same emotions.
@SakuraBlossoms87 It's old conditioning is what it is. Men are this and women are that but the truth is, energy just is.
No. Because ALL people are capable of bravery, courage, feelings, emotions, etc.
There is NOTHING about this so called "energy" that is 100% distinctive and unique to either men or women. Masculine & feminine energy labels only exist thanks to society.
After all
Faced with the same situation - say assault - both men and women are going to fight.
Is a man feminine if he doesn't fight?
Is a woman masculine if she does fight?
People who say men are warriors have to educate themselves as women have been involved in warfare as soliders and even war leaders for centuries.
People who women are nuturers have to educate themselves what when what do you think men are doing by providing for their family and have for forever.
Is a man feminine if he cares for his family?
Is a woman masculine if she gets a gun to defend her family? .
As said such labels are only a social construct and like many social constructs, stupid.
Finally, someone with a freaking brain. 👍👍
Just because some women are warriors, doesn't mean fighting wars isn't a masculine thing to do.
Taking a small sample size and trying to discredit the majority is a flawed process, along with your entire premise
It's not a social construct, you're both just morons
@WanderingLoveWizard: No, you're the moron that allows society and their ish to box you in and what to think rather than you thinking for yourself.
You are focusing on her statement about women being warriors which I don't agree with since a woman's body isn't meant to fight wars but rather pay attention to her 1st and last paragraph and what she's asking saying.
*actually
This site is so amusing -- to observe two uneducated people commend each other's intelligence. Clearly you are confusing male and female with masculine and feminine principles. It's a little bit deeper than who does the dishes and who puts the kids to bed. I would suggest reading the Tao Te Ching, but you wouldn't understand it.
I don’t believe in it I actually think masculinity and femininity is what you make it as there isn’t anything that defines your sexual identity other than what you’re born with.
If I say someone has ‘’masculine” energy what does that truly mean? Do they wear “masculine” clothes? - which is really just a type or colour of clothing we’ve attributed to a social construct of gender?
Are they aggressive or domineering? - another aspect of human emotion that we’ve decided is inherent of men alone?
I’m not sure if you get what I mean here but I’m trying to say that it literally means nothing. A man defines his own masculinity, as does a woman define her own femininity.

Ultimately it all comes down to the social construction vs evolutionary psychology debate.
People cling to the belief that masculinity and femininity are somehow natural parts of EXISTENCE, let alone natural parts of our biology.
But one can see by studying biology that Mas utility and femininity only applies to human beings.
Personally I think it's all socially constructed. There is no innate masculinity or femininity. If there is, it is always relative to the situation and the culture at hand.

Logically answer as you like
Both men and women definitely do think differently in their minds
Why that is the case is a difficult one to explain
i Do Think both women who are feminine are attractive
As a guy you have a responsibility yourself
I use to read about masculine and feminine energy before
Every person out there is different for sure
No matter which either gender they are
Masculine and feminine energies are simply the auras of masculinity and femininity.
Masculine energy: firmness, boisterous, exuding the male body language. Feminine energy: softer, lighter, exuding the female body language.
These energies are what attract us to each other, but can sometimes be in the opposite sex and which creates unattractiveness. Men with more feminine energy and attitudes are generally less attractive to women and what women see as not making him very strong or attractive for a partner. Women with more masculine energy and attitudes tend to repel men even when the woman is physically attractive, but some men don't realize that this is what makes them unattracted to her deep down, because at the moment they're just looking at her body but over time they find they can't really be attracted to her.
Yes, I do, but this has little to do with fishing or the capacity to care. Rather, it has to do with the differences in psychological and spiritual tendencies of men and women. This is reflected in archetypes: for the female, the yin, the lunar, the role of mother or lover; for the male, the yang, the solar, the role of warrior or ascetic. Furthermore, cultures and historical eras tend to have a masculine or feminine character depending on their particular characteristics and state of development. Ours is highly feminine, so thoroughly so that it its femininity is manifesting physically in the decreasing testosterone levels in Western men.
So by your logics a woman who defends herself or her family is really a man. And a man who cares for his family is really a woman.
Gotta love how people don't understand how such 'energy' is nothing more than a social construct what when everyone is capable of feeling and enacting on the exact same emotions.
@SakuraBlossoms87 Not at all. Archetypes are symbols or ideals that surface repeatedly through human history. It has nothing to do with what types of emotions a man or woman is capable of feeling, which is why I wrote that masculine and feminine energy has nothing to do with the capacity for care. An archetypal figure is an extreme case, not the normal person. With rare exceptions individual people have both feminine and masculine characteristics, perhaps a balance that is something like 60/40. So I am not saying that women who defend themselves are men. Furthermore defending oneself does not make one a warrior. What I will assert is that we will probably never have a female Mohammed or Alexander the Great.
That there are general behavioral and psychological differences between men and women is irrefutable and confirmed by scientific research, especially within the fields of neurology and evolutionary biology. The idea that such differences are purely social constructs is simply an absurdly false ideology promulgated in service of our elites’ attempt to cultivate a compliant population that is amenable to overweening micromanagement. Even someone with a materialist perspective who discounts the relevance of the spiritual or archetypes that persist for all of human history, must contend with the fact that testosterone and other hormones are physical things that have profound behavioral effects.
@RealMarek - ROFL. You are too dimwitted to comprehend what I said, how cute.
"general behavioral and psychological differences between men and women" WHAT behavioral and psychological differences. A man & woman can just as easily fight, a man & woman can just as easily run a business, a man & woman can just as easily lead a war, a man & woman can just as easily kill someone else, a man & woman can just as easily get drunk or become an addict, a woman & man can just as easily have anger issues (assoicated with testosterone issues), a man & woman can just as easily nuture, a man & woman can just as easily become moody & depressive.
WHAT is different?
" testosterone and other hormones are physical things that have profound behavioral effects"
No they don't, go back to school.
Testosterone is predominantly assoicated with muscle mass. It is abnormal levels of testosterone that causes behavioural issues and why steroid users - both men AND women - have anger issues for one.
Estrogen is predominantly assoicated with breast tissues, breast related cancers & the placement of fat over the body. Like with testosterone abnormal levels of estrogen is assoicated with mood disorders otherwise men would NOT BE THREE TIMES MORE PRONE TO SUICIDE THAN WOMEN.
@SakuraBlossoms87 “You are too dimwitted to comprehend what I said, how cute.” - You don’t know anything about me. You are the one who repeatedly makes absurd assertions, like the one that women can fight just as easily as men. If that was true MMA wouldn’t have separate divisions for men and women.
“go back to school” - Why? To undergo more propagandization in social constructivism? Anyway, I’ve had more years of education and am more widely read than most. Doesn’t mean I’m right, but you’re not dealing with someone who lacks education.
“a man & woman can just as easily run a business” - I never said otherwise.
“A man & woman can just as easily fight” is literally false. The average man has an overwhelming advantage in upper body strength. There is a reason why even matriarchal tribal cultures have male warriors. As for all the hay made about Viking shield maidens and Scythian amazons lately, this is an exercise in exaggeration for political purposes and a case of the exceptions proving the rule.
“a man & woman can just as easily lead a war” - Then why does this almost never happen? In all of human history and across all cultures, what woman general built an empire? If high technology is necessary to make this remotely conceivable, there must be biological or other innate differences between men and women that make this impossible without modern technology.
@SakuraBlossoms87“a man & woman can just as easily become moody & depressive” Not really. Trait neuroticism is more prevalent among women than among men. Not to discount that many men are neurotic, but remember what I said about 60/40. These differences are expressed in prevalence.
“otherwise men would NOT BE THREE TIMES MORE PRONE TO SUICIDE THAN WOMEN” - Wrong conclusion again. Looking into basic research would reveal that women attempt suicide much more frequently than men, but the higher level of aggression among men causes men to use more violent methods and to be more effective in their suicide attempts. This lends credence to what I am saying about the differences between men and women rather than detracts from it.
“It is abnormal levels of testosterone that causes behavioural issues” - No. Normal levels of testosterone are why out of random pairings of men and women, in 60% of cases the man will have a higher level of aggression than the woman. This cuts across cultures, including matriarchal tribal cultures, which demonstrates that social conditioning is not the likely cause. Furthermore, the extreme levels of aggression are found almost exclusively among men, which is consistent with the higher level of variability in psychological profile among men (an evolutionary adaptation that is hormonally based, not a cultural artifact).
No, because I simply don't know what that's supposed to look like. I feel like masuline or feminine energy or attitude is behavior that society put on us. There is a video of a bus driver throwing out a woman. He said "You want to act like a man, I'll treat you like a man". She wasn't acting like a man, but she was screaming in his face, getting physical. Any person is capable of that regardless of gender.
It had always exist because of our biological difference. Ever since humanity began, men being the hunters while women being the gathers is due to the fact that women can only give birth for a few times in her life while a man can impregnate hundreds of women of time so a ratio of more women than men can populate the world faster which is what made men the violent risk takers and women being the careful ones who support and nurture. Because of those things doesn't really exist then nobody shouldve been hearing about those.
I forgot to mention women being safeguarded because of that. And of course that instinct is still in us because we are still humans in the end of the day
Yes, I do believe in it.
Masculine energy is active, competitive, a doer, feminine energy is receptive, nurturing, a receiver.
If a person has both in perfect balance they're the most whole and don't feel the need for anyone else to complete them.
That is the goal.
Pure BS. Doesn't make logical sense at all. Being active and competitive will never make you masculine as a female. Never.
I believe you've asked a question you do not comprehend. Which is okay... but I suggest researching this on your own, as you seem like you don't want to learn from others...
Good luck with the research!
Seem you are good learning from others. The willingness that people have to easily believe whatever ish society tells them is mind boggling. 😕
@LittleSally So by your logics a woman who succeeds in life as a business owner is really a man. And a man who remains with no ambition in life is really a woman.
Gotta love how people don't understand how such 'energy' is nothing more than a social construct what when everyone is capable of feeling and enacting on the exact same emotions.
@LittleSally @Hispanic-Cool-Guy @SakuraBlossoms87 I think you guys are all debating different things but on the same page probably. Masculine energy and feminine energy is very real. HOWEVER, to subject them to gender classification is ignorant. like @SakuraBlossoms87 said anyone can get into the energy or feeling of these 2. So what she is saying is yes it is real but the naming of them is ignorant.
Yep energy exists. Masculine leads, feminine follows.
I agree with this but I keep hearing fishing is masculine, caring is feminine and BS alike as if men can't be caring and women can't fish.
Why care? Obv you know that’s false so you waste time acknowledging it. As you know all humans have feminine and masculine energy.
Plus fishing is fun, especially in the Bahamas.
Anyone with a half a brain knows that ish doesn't make logical sense but I wanted to know people's perspectives on GAG.
People just go with whatever is trending and being repeated over and over again and masculine and feminine energy I hear a lot.
Gotcha. Just remind them that the Bible clearly says:
“there is no male and female”
There's male and female. What the Bible is teaching in context of that scripture is that all Christians in Christ are one.
@BarryLiverstone - so women like Margaret Thatcher and other women who have led countries and even armies are really men then. And seeing as many men are satisifed with just being cogs in the wheel following everyone else... does that make them women?
Thatcher clearly was a woman.
I think energy doesn’t have a gender. We all have energy, both potential and kinetic as we move around ( except those who are paralyzed). When we die, that energy doesn’t disappear, because energy can’t be destroyed, it changes form. Our energy moves on and so do we.
But I don’t believe in that concept. Energy is energy.
Kinda but I personally don't really life by that.
When I hear a youtuber I'm following talk about her feminine energy, I take it as her just basically talking about a higher self that she just likes to connect with and here I wanna include feminine/male energy is probably very different to each individual and doesn't have to fit into the picture of being feminine or masculine according to society
I think both genders are capable of the same actions but some things come more naturally to one than the other. The absence of one will be took over by the other to care for young. Both parents will always be better than just the one but the resilience of our species means for the most part we'll try to fill the space of the missing party. I think we're both capable of the same energy when push comes to shove
I honestly don't understand the concepts because I don't know what feeling masculine or feminine feels like. I see everything as things people do and I do the things that make me feel good regardless of what society has gendered it.
No. Its an absolute bullshit concept, too vague and nebulous and that's why reasonable people can be left shouting at the woowoo crowd, what the hell is that even supposed to mean? (They probably use the term Goddess energy too, unironically.)
Yes, of course. I already know you'll disagree with me considering your responses to others here, but that's ok. This image does a good job of summing up the reality of it.
No they are social constructs my Dad boxed and played football earns his living in construction yet he is the most caring nurturing emotional person I know and I love him for it
Yes. I used to work at a daycare and we had lots of boys and girls. The different energy between the two is very obvious. You see the same types of energies in men and women, but somewhat more controlled.
I do believe it's still this mostly a feeling when you see a woman or man and so we are it's what makes a special
I believe there is yin and yang, generally associated with female and male energies, but it's way more complicated than that, a health mindset is to have a balance, and orient towards one or the other depending on circumstances,,,
Men are predisposed to combat and hunting. Women are predisposed to child rearing and industry.
No... but there are these moments where me and The Boys are having a great time and our girlfriends are looking at us like we're crazy.
