You cant jump to conclusion like that..

You need to study her for sometime before you conclude she is that kind of woman....

Oh, Okay.
I get your point.
And I agree too.

But, in this context, remember I made exceptions.
Could you please help by differentiating a strong woman from a feisty one?
Thanks in anticipation smiley

A strong woman possess these qualities you listed but a feisty woman possess the qualities you listed and this
Feisty::
High-strung,quarrelsome,hot-blooded,thin-skinned,truculent, sensitive, difficult, aggressive, fiery, ornery, argumentative, hostile, temperamental, agonistic, antagonistic, huffy, touchy e.t.c
I see you are trying to support the positive aspects of being feisty but the negative aspects cannot be ignored either.

...lol...I've heard about it alot......still doubting if it actually happens...

We are talking about being 'feisty' here....


How can you know or suddenly conclude a woman is 'feisty' by seeing her the first time??...

I think discovering a woman's behaviour is similar to a treasure hunt....You ll continue to search and search before concluding.....

Modified:
In that case, every man should want a strong woman for a wife. There are men who desire evident submission in their wives. A strong woman may fall short in that regard. There is the tendency for her to be dogged and thus dogmatic in ALL things; but she should realize that "strong" may be apparently unyielding and brittle but "strong" can also be tensile and resilient.

Many guys would say they that want a woman who challenges them, who is not laid back and unresponsive. A lofty line of thought. However, there is the risk of the lady second-guessing her man on a really bad day.

I think a strong woman is desirable. cool I believe she is strongest when she learns how/when to be weak. wink

Very correct...... Both parties should know and accept their roles in marriage....
But in a situation where both parties wants to play the same role, the marriage will turn into a free-for-all and personality clash becomes inevitable

softsparkyy: My own dictionary...

Feisty
1) Tenacious, energetic, spunky.

2)Belligerent; prepared to stand and fight especially in spite of relatively small stature or some other disadvantage.

3)Easily offended and ready to bicker.

Hmmmmm... I am not and I don't want to be one, I only enjoy having them as friends because they always buy my case grin

Re: Can You Love A Strong Lady? by pansophist(m): 8:29pm On Oct 01, 2014
Fiesty women tend to act masculine/feminist and this are traits that turns people off. They tend to overdo it and are always trying to show or proof their significance. Fiesty women that I have met personally tends to have emotional issues, and became fiesty as a defense to their insecurity (not all though).

Women are known for their calm, soft and gentle look/attitude, which lacks in most fiesty women.

I've been laughing at most of these comments.

Nothing really. Just wanna know if u saw it or not.

Didnt make any comment on it.

MizMyColi:
Hi all smiley
Good Evening.

So this topic sounds interesting to me, because, while I may not come across to a lot of people that way, chiefly because, I'm a balanced extrovert - introvert. I admit that I can be quite feisty strong, especially when it comes to defending people and standing up for what I know to be right.


Putting myself in perspective here, when a situation calls for it, I can become very sharp and critical.
After having made my point, I will return to my natural, warm self.


Now Feisty Strong in this case DOES NOT include, proud, arrogant, men hating women/feminists.

This Feisty topic actually piqued my interest and I'd love to know varying opinions on feisty women in this context.

Synonyms for Feisty Strong include the following:
fiery, spirited, active, bold, lively, sparkling, vigorous, energetic, animated, have-a-go, courageous, ardent, game, plucky, high-spirited, sprightly, vivacious, spunky, mettlesome.

Some quotes for feisty strong women:

There is in every true woman's heart, a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity, but which kindles up and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity ~ Washington Irving.


Strong Women only intimidate weak men. shocked undecided


*modified again*

So, I got this new perspective from MisterLongman and it's quite revealing:



And I strongly support ^^^
If that is also what it means to be Feisty, then, No LADY SHOULD ASPIRE TO BE FEISTY.

Be Strong, If you can.
Not Feisty wink


*modified*

Okay, from the comments posted, it's clear most people didn't bother didn't reading thru' the OP.

Personally, and indeed, everyone kynda has this abhorence to the word "Feisty"

But having looked up it's meaning, I'm beginning to think it might not be a bad thing afterall, when applied modestly......I guess it's another way of saying.

"I am my own woman" or "That lady is Strong, Intelligent and Independent"

Now Guys know women as dependent biatches shocked who always like it cheap.
So why does it trouble some guys that a woman rarely asks them for stuffs or do the sex exchange

Well, I'll keep reading comments and making contributions where necessary.

Happy Independence grin

Yes, I can love a strong lady. I can love the kind of lady you described above.
Some ladies take it over board though, and are quick to bare their fangs at the drop of a hat. Those ones I avoid, and I avoid very much. The strong, cool-headed lady who doesn't allow people boss her around to their own advantage? I like such lady smiley
