I've been accused of being a "strong woman."
"'Accused'?"
"Yes. 'Accused.'"
I think of "strong women" as tough. Determined. Won't budge. Strong-willed. Hard-hearted. Most of those things I'll admit I can be.
But it's the context, right? I should probably admit, I wasn't there. It was a second-hand story. The person who said it, mildly intimidates me, and is herself, a VERY strong woman. But it was said as a compliment.
I might be a little...? (I don't know the word.) But I wonder if it was just meant as a passing comment, something you say but don't really mean.
Paranoid! That's the word. Am I being paranoid?
