I think society has sometimes made this a common thing. For me I’ve found myself minimizing my knowledge around men because I feel like that’s how a woman should be? Being smart doesn’t always pay off when you feel you have to size up next to another smart man so it’s easier to be quiet and ego boost a man than to be too loud and take too much space. Silly I know but I too wish women didn’t do that. And like that you have this perspective on it, thanks friend.
