Rethinking Attraction: Defining True Masculinity
In this episode of Becoming Sunshine, the host discusses a recent epiphany about her attraction to men and how her preferences have changed over time. She reflects on past relationships where she was drawn to men who spoke softly and doted on her, mistaking their behaviors for genuine masculine energy. However, she now realizes such men often lacked stability and authenticity, leading to unhealthy dynamics and emotional dysregulation. She emphasizes the importance of emotional safety, groundedness, and consistency, which she believes are the true markers of masculine energy. The host encourages listeners, especially women, to reassess their relationship patterns, move beyond charm, and seek partners who offer genuine support and authenticity.
