Men stand and girls kneel

There is just a fundamental difference between our genders. Even though girls can stand strong and Men can kneel docile, it never really feels right for either.

It is basic biology when we think about it. Men are hunters, predators. They take charge, they "go for it". It doesn't always work out and no Man is faultless. But it is in their nature to try and shoot for the moon.

With us girls it is different. We don't like risks. We play it safe and rather follow a well laid out path than make split-second decisions. Overthinking is a big problem for girls.

So when both genders come together, we can support and complement each other. Men take charge but the simple fact that they are now responsible for a fragile girl makes them more risk-aware. Men have no problem risking their own lives, but risking their loved ones? That is what makes them be extra careful. And girls don't like uncharted territories where anything could happen, but if there is a safety net in the form of a Man taking care of us, we can dare to jump into the unknown.

Men thrive when they can take charge and lead. They flourish when they are making impactful decisions. Girls prosper when they can take care of things and nurture them to make them grow and go beyond. They can help Men grow and blossom, while Men have the ability to take girls out of their shells and still keep them safe.

Men benefit from having a girl to take care and girls benefit from leadership. It is a match made in heaven. We just have to be bold enough to admit it: Men stand and girls kneel. None is superior to the other, it is just 2 different sides of a coin. You cannot have a leader without a follower and you cannot follow without a leader.

That means we need to work together.
Dear Man, stand tall and take charge.
Dear girls, kneel docile and follow.
