-'''Femininity''' (also called feminity, girlishness, marianismo (counterpart of machismo), womanliness or womanhood) is a set of attributes, behaviors, and roles generally associated with [[girl]]s and [[women]]. Femininity is made up of both socially-defined and biologically-created factors. This makes it distinct from the definition of the biological female sex, as both males and females can exhibit feminine traits. People who exhibit a combination of both masculine and feminine characteristics are considered [[androgynous]], and [[feminist]] philosophers have argued that [[gender]] ambiguity may blur gender classification. Modern conceptualizations of femininity also rely not just upon social constructions, but upon the individualized choices made by women

-Traits traditionally cited as feminine include gentleness, [[empathy]], and sensitivity, though traits associated with femininity vary depending on location and context, and are influenced by a variety of social and cultural factors. In some non-English speaking cultures, certain concepts or inanimate objects are considered feminine or masculine (the counterpart to feminine).
