Usually, when they say “smart” about a man, they mean his intellect, logic, thinking. When they say “smart” about a woman, confusion arises here. Someone considers an intelligent woman, endowed with a "masculine" mind - logic and intellect. But much more often a wise woman is meant.
Instructions
Step 1
Does a woman need to develop a "masculine" mind?
If intelligence and logic, i.e. "Male mind" helps a woman in her career and business, but in her personal life it usually interferes. The fact is that most men, unfortunately, are repulsed by women with a "masculine" mindset. In their understanding, a woman “plays on male territory,” that is, encroaches on their territory. Rarely does a man's pride come to terms with the idea that a woman is equal to him in intelligence, or even surpasses him.
But, as we have seen, in personal relationships, these qualities can get in the way. After all, a man appreciates in a woman, first of all, female qualities, and there can be no two men in a relationship. If you have a "masculine" mind and a tough character, maybe they will help you climb the career ladder, but you will scare men away with this. Or you will find a "weak" type of man - your opposite, psychologically a woman.
Of course, this is a stereotype. Are you one of those women who like to break stereotypes? By the way, if you want to develop a "male" analytical mind, intelligence and logic, develop your thinking. Expand your horizons, communicate with smart people, reflect and analyze, compare facts, solve complex (including life) tasks. What will it give you? It is unlikely that your mind will help you find happiness, but in self-realization, business and career, logic and intelligence are very useful. As well as the "masculine" qualities: energy, activity, perseverance, etc.
Step 2
Some "especially smart" women may advise you to pretend to be a "fool". That is, you know for yourself that you are smart, but for men, you clap innocent eyes and portray such a silly and foolish person. Of course, you can try to play the "fool", especially if the talent of the actress is lost in you. But is it worth it?.. After all, it means constantly wearing a mask, playing a role, pretending, and this in the end will simply exhaust you. And most importantly, the right man can pass you by, and you will come across another type of man who likes fools. Like attracts like!
Step 3
In fact, the fact that a wise woman is a sly woman is just a stereotype. It's just that for many centuries of patriarchy, a woman had to cunning and pretending in order to survive in the male world. But you can't outwit yourself! Wisdom has nothing to do with cunning and worldly "grip".
Step 4
To become a wise woman, you need to be flexible. That is, where you need to be firm, and where necessary, soft.
You need to have patience and understanding, which was also appreciated in women at all times.
You need to be able to no longer speak, but listen. Learn to listen to other people, learn to listen to your man. You need to be tactful and delicate, not to demonstrate the power of your intellect to a man with aplomb and arrogance. Don't try to sound smarter than you are.
Keep it simple! As the saying goes, "keep it simple - and people will be drawn." Being simpler doesn't mean stopping makeup and taking care of yourself. To be simpler means to be natural, relaxed, calm, to be yourself.
Wisdom is more than intelligence. A wise woman sees a simple solution where a man with logic and high intelligence can get lost. Therefore, wisdom is the strength of a woman. Whether she is smart or not is a secondary question.
