A masculine man is different than an abusive man

The abusive men is the one that uses his strength and resources for his own benefit and in detriment of others well being.

The masculine man is the one that knows he’s capable of using his strength in a selfish way but chooses to use his potency to benefit others even if he has something to loose with it

For example the owner of a company could worry only about profits but chooses to be at service for people for a greater purpose

For example a husband that instead of demeaning his wife to make himself feel more powerful chooses to offer his best to her

A masculine man understand that he leads when he has the trust of others not when he subjugates and threatens them

One thing is having control, another is having respect

The abusive man rules through fear, the masculine man rules through admiration

We sometimes hear people saying that traditional gender roles breeds abusive men but this can’t be further from the truth. The truly abusive man is the one who’s aggressive and impose his presence through fear is not a true representation of the “patriarchy” - that is a violent and uncontrolled man that doesn’t even deserve the presence of a woman in his life. A man that is violent with his family should and deserves to be in jail

Our civilization got to where it is being conducted by strong and mature men that took care of their women and took their kids to the world so their offspring could expand. This is the true “patriarchy” and there is nothing wrong with it.

It’s just a man fulfilling his duty… providing, protecting and leading his family.

That is the masculine man, a man that acts according to his essence

the theme for the rest of the year is intention. lets be more intentional about who we have in our lives, setting + achieving goals, daily habits and routines, relationship with God, prioritizing self care + learning to love ourselves.

there’s nothing wrong with women who feel the most empowered when they’re serving their men. in fact, it’s our natural obligation.

stop teaching young girls that being wives/homemakers/stay at home moms is ‘settling for less’.

everything beautiful begins at home. it’s an honor to be given the job of keeping the home safe, clean, cared for, and welcoming.

it is not an ‘inferior’ job.

10 tips for casual elegance ⋆｡𖦹 °✩

Reading. Reading. Reading. Being well-read is so valuable!! Get cosy, pick up a Jane Austen, Emily Brontë, or maybe a Charles Dickens and spend some of your free time indulging in literature. <3

Soft-spoken and kind expressions. No one likes being around rude people. Being a bitch doesn’t make you look confident. Instead, be kind, make conversation, pay attention, engage, etc… trust me.

Dainty jewellery. Find some high-quality signature pieces.

Think before you speak. Take a moment to reflect on your thoughts so you can speak confidently and with intent without stumbling over your words!! <3 

Quality over quantity. Stop buying large amounts of cheap clothing; instead, save up and invest in higher-quality pieces that will actually last you. :)

Practice your handwriting. Having pretty and neat handwriting is a lovely little detail; extra points if you write in cursive. ;)

Drop the slang words. Bro, cap, sus, drip, rizz, mid… just stop, please.

Keep to yourself. Small circle, no bragging, gossips only with the closest, keep your plans to yourself.

Watch your posture. Straighten that back, honey. I see you. :))

Manicured nails. I do mine every two weeks. Almond-shaped, always dark red. <3

As always, Please feel free to add your own suggestions and tips in the comments!! ♡ ₊ ⊹

I believe masculinity is a truly wonderful thing

Masculine men have created empires and countries, they are ambitious are all about levelling up. They overcome issues with a level head and are focused on growing and improving.

Masculine men build families and lead them well, they take on responsibility and turn hard work into enjoyable moments to provide for the ones they love.

Masculine men are strong and deserve love and support.

I long for healthy female companionship.

I want women friends who I can cook with, share baked goods with over tea, read with, garden with and trade harvests with, sew with, embroider with... I'm sick of only getting to spend time with female friends if we're at the mall or a club.

I want healthy feminine friendships that can be nurtured in domestic and mature social settings, instead of always getting asked to go to the bar with the girls.

ladies: being your husband's helper doesn't mean you are a his slave/doormat/maid. the Holy Spirit was described as a Helper too. He was also a teacher, counselor and guide. your role takes strength and humility.

gentlemen: being your wife's head doesn't mean you are her master/oppressor/boss. Jesus was described as head too. He was also a servant, advocate and sacrificial lamb. your role takes strength and humility.

God's roles are not oppressive. these roles are used to serve one another and above all, to give God glory.
