So I’ve come to the conclusion (being told a lot) is that women like men who like to lead. They like men who make plans, men who can take care of situations, take care of them, etc. That’s a big difference between aggression. Some might make the argument or mistake that the 2 are one and the same but no. Aggression isn’t being a leader, at least not by itself. It more of insecurity which along with not doing anything at all. Some women might be attracted to aggression, but it’s mostly superficial, and when it’s actually put to the test, it won’t hold up when it matters the most. My question is where do you draw the line between the 2 in your opinion? Where might you need to show both traits? What are some good examples of aggression vs assertiveness? submitted by /u/Meaty_Bongos
