Joseph: “There’s an equally sorry state of femininity, with society pushing women to become like men. Given women’s nurturing nature, as you said, it would make sense to stress that by having them take care of, and show care to, their husband (or date) by opening the door for him.”
I agree (to some degree) with the first part, but I don’t think that’s the way to show nurturing. The ways that women show nurturing to men is different than the ways that men give to women. That’s why the term nurturing is used specifically for women and giving is used for men. The two do not have the same meaning and entail different things.
