Comment on In movies a strong woman is manly. (big muscles, aggressive, punches people, etc.) Is that really the way it is?

  Will do. Thanks.

  What would you call feminine strengths?

    Regular strengths, but in a feminine person

    I don’t think there are inherently masculine or feminine strengths

    I don’t think strengths have inherent gender.

    Maybe the most muscular people are men, but that doesn’t make muscular women manly.

    Strengths that women typically have more of than men might include compassion, encouragement, empathy, aesthetics, optimism, flexibility, networking, organization
