As a guy I took a knee-jerk moment of subconscious offense, but then I realized that while I’m naturally good at a couple of those things, the rest I’ve been striving for a long time to get better at and I’m still very mediocre. Networking may be the only one I wouldn’t agree women are inherently better at, I think that one is pretty 50/50, but you nailed the rest.
My wife and my ex-gf may have skewed my perception on women being good at networking; they’re both great at gaining contacts. This flows into being good at organizing events.
Check out the film Gravity. I would call Sandra Bullock’s character strong, but she’s not “manly” at all.
Will do. Thanks.

Regular strengths, but in a feminine person
I don’t think there are inherently masculine or feminine strengths
I don’t think strengths have inherent gender.
