I was reading a article on the magazine section of this site. A man asked a Poll to give opinions on woman who have taken men's role or hobbies and aren't feminine enough.
Awhile ago, on T.V., I learned about the Greek legends of the Amazon Women (Scythians) who created their own tribes and fought during the 4th and 5th B.C.
There were quite a few women warriors throughout the history, including some Asian woman Queens, Princesses and warriors who led armies into battle. Please have a look at the article by Nicky Saunders of Lothene Experimental Archaeology, for more information.
Also Samurai wives carried draggers in their Obi in case their castle or houses were invaded and that they had to defend themselves. Also, in case of a castle invasion, and it was a losing battle, these wives had to committ suicide by stabbing themselves in the throat.
In the modern world, on various dating sites, I've seen many profiles where the men ask for women who can run, and do sports with them. If that's the expectation by certain men who want equals. They want a woman to be tough enough to compete and also be feminine enough for their mate.
I'm a tom boy, since I grew up with one older brother. When I was a , I had to copy him and play with his trucks. When I got a bit older, I did play with dolls, and wore dresses besides pantsuits.
As an adult, I will argue with men, and women if I have to in certain cases or ask for customer service before my Ex-husband would. Professional female managers have to really tough to survive in the business world in dealing with men.
There are a few women soldiers fighting in Irag too along side with the men or get jobs as prison guards and police officers. Some parents take their little girls to martial arts lessons, soccer, softball practice so they have an exposure to team sports and to learn how to defend themselves.
We women need to speak out too in the workplace and at home, in order to better communicate with our future spouses, boyfriends and male bosses.
