Weaponized femininity. I'd thought a lot about how women can weaponize sexuality, but I hadn't properly considered how they'd weaponize frills and nude lipstick.
My other problem is it's easy to imaging how a woman like that interacts with men, and with other women she's competing with, which is almost all women. But when she interacts with my hard woman, Aisha is securely occupying a male role, and I don't know how a woman like Skyler reacts to that.
(Hard or hard-but-soft, depending on which Reader you ask. I don't get a vote.)
