What makes a woman a woman? Who was it that said a woman wasn't a woman if she didn't wear women's clothing? If a woman didn't look at magazines so that she could shop for more decorations, clothing, or furniture, would she not be feminine?Why do some women feel the obligation to decorate and wear frilly dresses?What makes a woman a woman? Is it how she cares for her hair? Whether or not she wears make-up and nail polish? What about her catty and very manipulative ways?Women are the people of the world who mother their children, give birth, suffer monthly, and can out wit most men. Whether she holds her hands daintily when doing anything or decorates every room in florals and lace, that does not make a woman a woman.Some women feel compelled to be what we have made a woman to be. Make-up. Dresses. Shopping. Having children. Cooking. And if women are not born to do these things, then why do we do them? Because we are women? Or because we enjoy doing them? Perhaps it's even because no one else would do it? Wouldn't that all coincide with natural instincts?Why is a woman a *itch if she is firm, business-like, clever, witty and precise but a man is smart and business savvy if he is?Wonder if a woman has no breasts? No femininity?What is a woman?

I must say, though, that it would be much stronger without the line about women being able to outwit most men. To me, that doesn't come across as strong and self-respecting. It comes across as defensive and insecure.
Or maybe I am just oversensitive. :)
Keep writing!
