 I know it was just satire, but I see anti-femininity messages, everywhere, and it grates. There's nothing wrong with girl-maxxing. It doesn't mean you're stupid, ignorant, or incapable of accomplishment.

Get your girl on. Be pretty; it's fun.

 I actually love it when my wife is feminine and she doesn't hide that she likes my masculine energy. I think the thing a lot of people don't understand is that both start from within. It's energy, not always some external thing, although those can be expressions of the energy. And of course neither is strictly limited to a sex. I have some traditionally feminine traits in my work in healthcare. And sometimes I have to turn that off if someone is getting rowdy. People are way too serious now. Just be yourself when you feel like it is my attitude.
