I knew it would happen….. I think I offended….
I never intended to offend any woman (or person for that matter)…. and I apologize if that is what happened in my writing of this post about gender roles as society sees them…
The blog post came about from a conversation in a class I’m taking, in conjunction with some body builders and power lifters. The point I was attempting to make is that women can not naturally be as strong as men…scientifically our muscles, hormones, bones, shape are not designed for that physical strength.
I am a proud woman but I am not ashamed that I cannot have the same physical power as a man…unless of course I want to take many steroids and lose many of my positive feminine qualities…. And if a woman chooses to do that, that’s okay too… just not for me.
I think women are courageous, brave, nurturing, and intelligent. I think that we women have power in many ways that as of yet are unrecognized by many in society….

I'm a gypsy, romantic, music-lover, book-lover, creator, mother, daughter, lover, friend. I have lived in many places and had many experiences both good and bad. I love knowledge....learning new things and teaching others. I believe in a higher power...for each of us that may be something different but for those of us who believe, it's all the same. It doesn't matter what you call your maker or that high power...the most important thing is to believe - and that believing makes you a better person. I do my best to fill my world with loving kindness and compassion. And now I'm learning to live with multiple sclerosis...
