I was just reading leelee's thread asking the guys about feisty women. Cool thread, leelee Very educational! I didn't want to derail her thread, so I thought I'd make one for the ladies to discuss this topic from our prespective, though the guys are welcome to respond as well.
I can understand how guys might be interested in a confident, intelligent and maybe even firey woman because when I'm in a relationship with a guy, I think it's awesome when he has that "I will not be taking any junk from you, young lady" attitude.
I'm not saying that it should be taken to the point of being controlling, abusive or anything like that. That's over the line, but it's important to me for the guy to be the leader in a relationship. I can respect that, and women are called to respect their men scripturally.
I know balance is important and that discussing matters is important, but I also know I would have difficulty respecting a man I could lead around by the nose. That's uncool.
I can't speak for any other women, but when a godly man knows who he is, what he wants and is boldly confident, it doesn't matter what he looks like..THAT gets my attention.
