To be womanly is one thing, and one only; it is to be sensitive to man, to be highly endowed with the sex instinct; to be manly is to be sensitive to woman.

Man to be a man to women
A manly man is erotic
in stimulating a woman.
He takes her to heaven.
A womanly man is erotic
in being stimulated by a woman.
She sends him to heaven.

Menopause- no pause
.
Even at your late fifty,
If someone for you is thirsty,
Either you are still sexy
Or he is over-manly.
Both ways you are in gaiety.
Life does not end
With one’s menopause.

The sea - this truth must be confessed - has no generosity. No display of manly qualities - courage, hardihood, endurance, faithfulness - has ever been known to touch its irresponsible consciousness of power.
