Good morning gorgeous. How are you ladies doing this morning? I hope you're all doing fantastic.

For those of you who are here for the very first time, welcome to my channel. I'm Dr. Daff and for those of you who are returning welcome back to the Dr. Daff show.

Today we have a question about femininity and whether or not femininity is a weakness.

So I want you to go ahead and sit back, relax, and let's talk about this.

Hi Dr. Michelle, I was wondering how to accept my femininity and be proud of it. I've been struggling

with this for someone who has come to realize that society often views women as weak and who has recently been removed from an emotionally abusive home.

I'm 15 and have trouble with confidence because of that.

I've gone through vases where I have prevented myself from owning anything pink or anything

considered girly because I knew that I wasn't weak, but strong, and I don't want society

to think that I was weak. I want to accept my femininity and express myself without being worried about what anyone else thinks of me.

Do you have any suggestions on how I may learn to be proud of being feminine and learn to feel strong and confident as a feminine young woman?

Thank you for your question Shayla. So in short, is femininity a weakness?

Absolutely not. Femininity is your superpower as a woman. This society likes to make it seem as though being feminine and the

traits that feminine woman carry are negative things because in this society we're

all about getting things done and working hard and

being assertive and doing things without taking the time to take things in and running over people and

competition it's all very in and running over people and competition.

It's all very masculine energy, especially

like in the workplace and things of that nature.

When we think about the traits of femininity, we're talking about being open and vulnerable and loving and supportive and compassionate.

Okay, these are all beautiful traits that we as women really should embrace in every aspect of our lives.

And is there a point where maybe it's more important to use masculinity and masculine traits.
