Thirteen Things Womanhood Is Not:
A sliding scale where some women are more or less womanly than others
A welcoming open door club that anyone can claim membership to
A special exclusive club full of wonderful privileges whose existing members decide who does and doesnβt belong
Wearing long hair, makeup, dresses or otherwise performing femininity
Being good at feelings and domestic tasks and bad at driving and math
Acting cute, seductive, giggly, sexy, coy, submissive or flirty
A soft, warm, sensitive, nurturing, emotional or moody personality
An interest in cute, pretty, soft, frilly or sparkly things
A certain mindset, outlook or way of thinking thatβs naturally ingrained in all womenβs brains
A magical mystical undefinable state of being or sense of βsisterhoodβ
A special feeling or instinct that comes from deep down in your soul that you βjust knowβ
A costume for men to wear
An identity for men to claim
The state of being an adult female human who was born into a female human body
And thatβs all. Thatβs it. Everything else is irrelevant.
