StarOfWars: It's an extrapolation. You said you were the opposite of passive. The first word that comes to mind as an antonym for passive is aggressive. But then again so are the words agitated and impatient. I'm just trying to understand this 'strong woman' thing.

I don't think anyone wants to hear about your private life. I know I certainly don't. But here, I'll give you an example of the sort of thing that I would think makes a strong person.

Someone who when confronted with devastating emotional trauma picks themselves up and carries on. Someone who can maintain their physical, emotional and psychological well-being through the many difficulties of life. Someone who is not driven into a flap by little things.

I think a strong person would know these things like a bird knows about preening it's feathers. You don't need to explain these things to a strong person.

I have seen strong people bear suffering and adversity with heroic stoicism and I have seen the passive-aggressive bullies claim the title strong for themselves as a cover for their bossy bully behavior. Words are easily spent and the honour due to other easily stolen.Stop thief!



This again seems to be something that is directed at the wrong person,
But if it helps you unburden, then let it all out, better out than in !!

mollybaby: Mental and emotional strength doesn't equate to aggressiveness.


Indeed. If aggressiveness is a personality characteristic rather that a legitimate situational response (like facing the front row of the All Blacks) it would not indicate a 'strong' person (although we still haven't come to an agreed definition of 'strong') but rather a nasty person (and I can define 'nasty' is anyone is in doubt)

What is your definition of a 'strong woman' Molly? Is it the same as a 'strong man' or 'strong person' or does adding 'woman' to it mean something different and if not they why make such a gender distinction?

Passive? Aggressive? Passive-aggressive?

Nah, you don't. But if it makes you feel better then go for it.
