Boy and Girl, Male and Female, Masculine and Feminine, Adam and Eve. It is such a big topic with so many layers that there are even varying degrees of addressing it.
This topic has been a something of a study of mine through a lot of my life.
Born a girl but was a tom boy that also really wanted boys attention. As I became more of a young lady I was still sporty but gave more attempt to being girly, even stuffed my bra on several occasions because I was made fun of for being flat chested. Then when my boobs came in there was a whole new sort of confusion because the same boys that made fun of me started to flirt with me. The list goes on and my own personal story of dating is one that I would rather save for other times but I will conclude with my most recent relationship where I was told that I was not woman enough and to study how to be feminine. I willingly looked into this because it is such a grand topic and I have had plenty of meditations, self discoveries and observations that had already piqued my interest and I was feeling rather intrigued by this guy and felt he would be taking me further along my own journey.
As this relationship and my seeking of acceptance as a woman continued the world was also starting to go through their own disfunction of boy and girl. (I will talk more about this in my deeper topics blog page but for now we will just leave it at this.) More people started looking into, speaking up and questioning these roles and how each person fit in to theirs.
Here is the cycle that really is the spice of all of this and I truly believe that at the root of most people they can feel this and agree. A man is supposed to provide – security, protection, and life. A woman is to nurture, amplify and help. The male and female energy need each other and do best when in the “loving as he loves himself” and “respecting fully” cycle. For instance, a woman is soft, respecting and enhancing of the man’s contributions to their life when the man has allowed her to be safe enough to. The man is able to contribute and be more of all things for them if he is respected and appreciated for all he does. When the woman challenges the man or belittles him, he is less likely to want to create for the space and life in a way that would be uplifting to both. When the man is hostile or degrading to the woman, she is more likely to put up defences, challenge him, shut down or feel the need to bow up in protection.
However, this can be one of the most beautiful cycles ever and receive all the greatest of things together if and or when it is allowed. Yet, there will be a complete breaking point with one or both if either of them are controlled and manipulated enough. Each has their responsibility to uphold this flow.
We were made to do things together for a reason and this is at the core of everything in creation.
A cycle can be vicious or it can be bountiful… all depends on the way it is fed.
