Hey everyone! I've swallowed the RP and I'm so glad I did! This subreddit is so great, and it's amazing to meet some like-minded people. I always felt like gender roles were there for a reason, but never really knew anyone who felt the same way, or at least no one who felt that way because they had intelligently thought through it long enough to be RP.
Anyway, I need some help. I've always been very domestic and helpful; I get my SO whatever he needs and makes sure everything is clean and made. I try to always look put together and my makeup is always done. I'm trying to tone done my more masculine traits (sexual aggressiveness, etc) and replace them with good feminine habits like not weighing my SO down with my problems and dressing more feminine. I've also cut out soda and started drinking mostly water with lemon.
However, I lack a certain feminine quality that I fear you must be born with: grace. My mom is a rowdy Italian, so grace was not something I grew up with. I'm naturally relatively loud, though I'm working on that, and I'm generally a bit clumsy... I don't fall or trip over myself, but sometimes I'll find myself tangled myself in a cord or something. I've never been good at subtlety and I tend to talk for much too long instead of being concise.
Any tips on what I can do? I may not be able to change myself fundamentally but I'd really like to improve myself.
TL;DR I'm not graceful or subtle, can you help me?
