Yes I'm a feminist and yes I want women to be gentle, nurturing, kind and sensitive. Not because those are female traits but because those are human traits. In fact, I want men to be all those things too. Everyone has their own domain in life and we all contribute in different ways but those acts of love are at the core of our beings and I will never discourage those in another woman in the name of feminism
Femininity is like the sea, a perfect balance between active and receptive, ebb and flow
All people are human before we are female or male. We do not have both feminine and masculine energy inside of us. We do not possess certain qualities that belong to something other than ourselves. Femininity is whole in and of itself. Femininity is of the woman. All women are feminine. Femininity encompasses all female traits, all traits present in women
To tell a woman that any part of her is inherently masculine is to tell a woman that she possesses qualities that aren't of her. That she is not whole within herself. That she is not just a woman but something more

There is not one way to be feminine. All human qualities are feminine qualities. Femininity and masculinity are not opposites in every way, they are two sides of the same coin. They are different expressions of the same human principles. No quality is either feminine or masculine. Embracing femininity means nurturing each and every one of our natural skills and qualities
