“The man of genius possesses, like everything else, the complete female in himself; but woman herself is only a part of the Universe, and the part can never be the whole; femaleness can never include genius.

“I realized that many men are happy to play a supporting role to another man, but they are much less happy to play a supporting role to a woman. People are saying we need more females in our industry and we need more female-driven stories, but that takes the men of bankable star quality to come forward and play supporting roles in those films, because ultimately that's what the women have always done. We've always lent our name value to male-centric stories, and now we're going to have to ask the men to swallow their pride, because it seems that it's about pride.” PeopleMenDoneFilmValuesQualityHe ManPrideFemaleI Realized Author:Rosamund Pike

“The tango is the man and woman in search of each other. It is the search for an embrace, a way to be together, when the man feels that he is a male and the woman feels that she is female, without machismo. She likes to be led; he likes to lead. Disagreements may occur later or they may not. When that moment comes, it is important to have positive and productive dialogue, fifty-fifty. The music arouses and torments, the dance is the coupling of two people defenseless against the world and powerless to change things.” PeopleMenWorldWayFeelsMayTwoImportantMomentsTogetherHe ManMen And WomenFemaleEmbraceDanceMalesLikesDialogueFiftyProductiveThat MomentTormentPowerlessDisagreementTangoDefenselessMachismoCoupling Author:Juan Carlos Copes
“The man and the woman are not really two separate entities, but the personality of the man needs the supporting qualities of the woman. If those supporting qualities are not there, the man will fall apart. And the same will happen to the woman. She cannot exist only on female qualities, she needs male supporting qualities. So each human being is a composite whole of two polarities which appear opposed to each other but are not really opposed; they are basically, absolutely essential components of each other.” IfsMenNeedsHumansTwoWholeHappensFallHuman BeingsQualityHe ManPersonalityEssentialsFemaleMalesFeminineEntityFalling ApartComponentsCompositesPolarity Author:Rajneesh
