Growing up, the idea of femininity and feeling feminine was somewhat of a foreign concept to me. It was probably due to the ridiculous teen romances I used to read (Sweet Dreams, anyone??), where the girls were always thin and pretty and got the boys. They were always shorter than the boys, had small waists, and could easily be picked up. That was never me. I was among the tallest girls in the class, and was the heaviest, so I couldn't gel my self image with the ideal that I'd picked up from society and books. As part of rediscovering myself post-motherhood, I'm trying to look at ways I can capture this feeling.
This long ramble leads to my queries - what do you do to feel feminine?
