Quote by Shirley Manson

I am not a sexy woman, I'm not beautiful, I'm not a sex kitten, I don't flirt with people, yet I've been tagged more of sex symbol than women who truly are and I that's solely because I don't reveal too much: people are curious.

I am not a sexy woman, I'm not beautiful, I'm not a sex kitt

Summary

This quote highlights the paradox of how societal perceptions of attractiveness are often based on mystery rather than explicit characteristics. The speaker, who doesn't conform to traditional notions of sexiness, becomes more alluring due to their modesty and lack of overt flirtation. It highlights the idea that being mysterious and leaving things to people's imagination can create intrigue and make one more desirable in the eyes of others.

Authentic Love - When you truly love another human being, you extend to them the dignity of risk. Love them without fear and embrace them without restrictions. Accept them without wanting them to change to your ideas of their person-hood. Watch them evolve and grow into the realization of their own potential. There comes a time when you recognize they need to journey on without you. Love them enough to let them go. Bless them and release them.
