In conversations with my lover, about our past partners and about differences in American and European cultures, two questions came up. Knowing your fascination with all things sexual, we were sure that you would have some interesting ideas to share with us.
1) What is the energetic difference between being girlish and being womanly and, similarly, what is the energetic difference between being boyish and being manly? It is certainly easy to know the difference, but what is going on energetically? [Culturally, it is interesting that American (and I include Canada in that classification) women tend to be much more girlish than European women. American men claim to be more manly that European men, but it may just be false yang.]
2. Does internal alchemy make you more “truly” gendered? That is, does a man become more true yang and less false yang, or does he become neutral? And, if yes, why? [My lover says that the answer is a definite yes. My answer is that it doesn’t have to be. I think that when I heard neutral, that I assembled ingredients to make myself de-gendered. So, depending on the ingredients we gather in our alchemy, we can become more or less gendered.]
thanks!

But I tend to agree, european women may have a more clearly defined model/pathway to womanhood, or maybe they just get pushed to grow up sooner than Americans, who are sheltered by a college system and extended childhood until they have children and are forced into maturity. (not implying childless women are immature – but it does force rapid series of challenges upon you).
For alchemy, its not clear from your wording what your lover’s yes was directed towards, i.e. neutrality or true yang. Actually, I doubt there is much difference there, in the sense that yuan chi never stays neutral in the physical plane, but will convert into true yin or yang. So whatever “filter” the soul of the male is holding, will shape that neutral force as it re-polarizes into true yin or true yang. And of course, when you have either of those present, you have easier access into its opposite; it merely implies that one or the other is the “default” stance of the male, it doesn’t suggest the other is not available.
My advice is to follow your woman and see where she takes you; that is the cycle we are in right now, so why fight it? Your true nature will emerge within that flow, without your labeling it…..:)
hope this helps.

though the maturity of girls is correctvoice already recognizes them in face
so emotional and physical aspect seems obviousthe mental aspect is also interesting
girls are attracted to: am i in love with him
while woman: do i want to have his childrenyet bot seem to be postnatal manifestations
for when a female gets excited
the difference is not yet recognized
sometimes it is elemental energy that shine through, mostly water or fire
but sometimes just lights up
and she looks through
which is a doggy-bowl look as it is someplaces addressedso a female in her state does not seem to differ if else a girl or a woman
though some general rules still apply
like three strikes (for afc), and you are outfor the magic it takes both
the enchantement of in-loveness
and the practicality of matter-of-factnessshe is great
many her know her
yet none owns her
though i may add
that new approaches may be dared
as she was sucrificed a lot for zero sum games
which is low yuans generating -
