00:02:50.940
the time when women say it mmm it equals I did no real work I made no real
00:02:55.980
changes but I say I am feminine oh just like poof okay yeah I just I became

00:03:29.800
actually clarified you don't have to come getting better this is better this is
00:03:34.960
no I'm getting better it's important to me but yeah I mean I know you actually
00:03:39.460
clarified a lot of things that like I honestly was so confused when I heard it
00:03:45.940
because I just heard so much like fluff and garbage and even like girls that I know
00:03:51.520
that studied femininity and would say I became feminine had no real answers yeah
00:03:59.080
and then they would say oh I became feminine but you're screaming at your
00:04:03.340
your guy Howard how did you become feminine if you're screaming at him right if
00:04:07.720
you have that response then you still have some work to do because if you ask
00:04:12.040
these same women how did you get your cosmetology license oh I had to study this
00:04:17.560
amount I had to take these many classes I had to do these many hours how did
00:04:21.340
you become a dentist how did you pick anything we can walk you through all of
00:04:26.680
the things that we do to get what we want and a goal of you know how you show up
00:04:31.480
in a relationship requires just as much work if not more and it's okay I'm
00:04:37.060
actually kind of proud to say you know I have had to do a lot of work to go from
00:04:41.800
that 50 50 mindset to being more of a support system and I haven't arrived I
00:04:47.920
still have work to do but I've gotten a lot better so mm-hmm so is there any
00:04:53.440
phrases we should add to here that you've heard oh goodness so you had the
00:04:57.520
the trauma and the energy toxic let me know in the chat guys if there's anything
00:05:02.920
we missed that we need to add do we have what manage have you heard that one no
00:05:10.780
oh but I'll add it manage it's basically describing masculine behavior like
00:05:16.780
there's something wrong with it and it's not better or worse we are different we're
00:05:21.460
equally valued but we are not equal and I think that's a beautiful thing I thought
00:05:27.820
of another uh-huh I need like I need there's some phrase that girls use when
00:05:33.760
they won't be led by a guy they're like oh well I need the right man to like I'll
00:05:37.900
be submissive for the right man I will be submissive for the right man mm-hmm
00:05:43.240
because I in a way I understand where they're coming I was gonna say yeah this
00:05:48.340
one I could unpack a little bit too but at the same time that equals I choose right
00:05:55.600
like they put the accountability on them like oh he didn't lead me when it's
00:05:59.800
like you picked him that's true we have to be responsible for our choices I think
00:06:06.540
yes I am submissive by nature if there are men around me like there's even if
00:06:14.480
you're not my man there are some ways that I do submit I don't talk over men I
00:06:19.440
don't try to compete with men I don't brag or lead with my accomplishments
00:06:29.280
because those things are very masculine traits now if you ask me I'm going to
00:06:35.220
respond you ask me a direct question I'll give you a direct answer but there are
00:06:39.420
ways that I submit to my man that I don't to other men but that's the only
00:06:45.780
thing that I wanted to to clarify on that but if you're a submissive person then
00:06:50.040
if you're a submissive woman then you're just a submissive woman you know I think
00:06:53.700
about my mom you know even her son my brother if he said mom no we're gonna get
00:06:59.760
you this you know the doctor said you need to do this so you need to do that
00:07:02.640
that's her son she says okay Phil and so like I see that so it's just
00:07:07.620
realizing like this is a man who loves you and and you know is looking out for you so
00:07:12.480
yeah I don't know I'll be submissive for that right yeah I think you should be
00:07:18.660
submissive in relationship to your man but I think almost you know I just
00:07:27.060
believe in respecting it so what phrases to add to our vocabulary mmm I trust you
00:07:32.760
