Though socially constructed, femininity is made up of both socially defined and biologically created factors. This makes it distinct from the simple definition of the biological female sex, as women, men, and transgender people can all exhibit feminine traits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Traits associated with femininity include a variety of social and cultural factors, and often vary depending on location and context. Behavioral traits that are considered feminine include gentleness, empathy, and sensitivity. The counterpart to femininity is masculinity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2595255166384096008-8626219419021694121?l=silviaconnolly.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://silviaconnolly.blogspot.com/feeds/8626219419021694121/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://silviaconnolly.blogspot.com/2011/08/femininity.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2595255166384096008/posts/default/8626219419021694121'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2595255166384096008/posts/default/8626219419021694121'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://silviaconnolly.blogspot.com/2011/08/femininity.html' title='Femininity'/><author><name>Cathy Curtis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03609771363497090890</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
