(ie. not be weak cheeks)&#8221;. i invite you to visit that part of yourself, that part of femininity, you refuse to see in others&#8230; and in yourself.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2- me, a feminine being<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>a lot of debate with my friends end quickly by &#8220;but if there is <strong>a masculine and a feminine, how can we define them?!&#8221;<\/strong>\u00a0which actually means : if we can&#8217;t put words or think them, then it proves it just does not exist!<\/p>\n<p>this video reminds me of my philosophy classes&#8230; even for &#8220;a cat&#8221; it is impossible to define it with words. oh yes, you actually can with very complexe scientific words. but even with that, you cannot explain its proper energy, attitude. what &#8220;a cat&#8221; is, is an intuition of a cat, and if you are not cut from it, a 3-year-old kid can say without mistake &#8220;this is a cat&#8221;. words are words, they don&#8217;t define everything.<\/p>\n<p><strong>so when Jerry says, feminine and masculine are energies, spirits, this makes a tremendous statement!

I still have issues with that. the other day also I was itw by an genius astrologist on her IG account, for her moon-like portrait \u00a0(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bf2-sbxgykF\/?taken-by=latisanieretatouee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>), it took 10 minutes to answer to the question : what is your best quality.
