Embracing and openly enjoying my feminity was one of the most important gifts of feminism

I can carry life and help it grow ,i can understand and solve problems just as good and often better than many male peers, i stay in sync with my emotions and others , i can assert myself without losing my softness because i am aware it doesnt make me any less feminine , i can defend myself without putting down others and i can walk away and do it on my own without resentment or regrets

Good for you (this isn't sarcasm). It's really hard for a lot of women to do what you just described.

I feel the same way about masculinity. I'm able to empathize, and express my emotions (not just angry and horny 😂) without feeling less masculine. Being emotionally intelligent has improved my career and overall life so much.
