Her sexuality is a deep, enduring, intense bonding force. She usually feels that love and sex go together and are meant to last a lifetime.

Lady Leo has more or less secret agenda in her head. Whenever a new man appears to be a serious candidate, she runs him through a series of exercises designed to test whether he truly cares. Her expectation is that if he loves her, he will do many or all of the following: 1. He will love her regardless of her behavior. 2. He will tell her she is the best, finest, most gorgeous female he has ever encountered, without knowing how great her need is to hear this regularly. 3. He will tell her he will love her forever. 4. He will tell her she is the only one he will ever desire. 5. He will tell her she is brilliant. 6. Most of all, he will always tell her whatever she needs to hear without her telling him what this is at any given moment of the day.

Because she is an actress, she is more conscious than the average person of her gestures, facial expressions, body talk.

Over thousands of years, patriarchal societies have developed various justifications for that inequality, many of which acquire the status of common sense, "that's just the way the world is." Patriarchy has proved tenacious, adjusting to challenges but blocking women from reaching full equality with men in the dominant culture. Women's status can change over time, and there are differences in status accorded to women depending on other variables. But Judith Bennett argues that these ups and downs have not transformed women as a group in relationship to men-societies operate within a "patriarchal equilibrium" in which only privileged men can lay claim to that full humanity, defined as the ability to develop fully their human potential. Men with less privilege must settle for less, and some will even be accorded lower status than some women (especially those who lack race, class, or caste privilege; gender is not the only axis of inequality). But in this kind of dynamically stable system of power, women never achieve full humanity.

“Understanding the Aquarius Woman requires adopting a new frame of reference. She is a fascinating maze of traditionalism and futurism, a blend of approval-seeking and nonconformism, logic and intuition, eccentricity and dogmatism. She considers the brain the most important sexual organ, and indeed, she filters every aspect of life through her perspicacious mind.” ~ Judith Bennett (artwork by Pierre Droal) ~ with humble-proud: I am ♋ in ♒ !
