We shouldn't have to be dependent on guys but we should still be okay with letting them do small polite things for us like opening doors {which is especially nice when it's a stranger. :)}.Madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949768258803203975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638919385338097440.post-28522271157838437712013-04-18T13:19:43.839-07:002013-04-18T13:19:43.839-07:00Exactly!

About the girl tough thing, I think about it this way: I need to be able to take care of myself, but I don't have to prove it and show off, especially in front of guys. I'm not going to be a weakling, but I'm going to let the guys do their job. =D But it is so much fun to have a character who isn't afraid and does cool things!! I love those kind! Adventure! So much fun!Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903370819097729760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638919385338097440.post-58009887624835810552013-04-17T14:16:44.727-07:002013-04-17T14:16:44.727-07:00Yes, that makes sense.

Or, in other words, they just been ''popular'' from a non-Christian point of view. But I like that female power seems to be coming back into books {Bella from Twilight is excluded from that group.}<br />~Madeline :)Madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949768258803203975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4638919385338097440.post-25291480107455897622013-04-17T13:14:50.118-07:002013-04-17T13:14:50.118-07:00I totally know what you mean.

Of course, they can't be happy all the time, but if you have a lot of pain and the some happiness, the happy parts are all that much more happy. And you feel like you've earned it. Hope that made sense!! =D<br /><br />-HadassahJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903370819097729760noreply@blogger.com
