Power (feminine) is the ability to bring various elements and components together to create energy. For example, power is created when lawmakers come together to decide governing rules; people forming an alliance have more power than a single individual in most endeavors. Conversely, authority (masculine) is the ability to enforce and act upon power. Police officers have the authority to enforce the law, but do not have the power to create those laws.
Putting this in perspective for this discussion, it is the power of the feminine to use intuition, to nurture information, and lend emotion, which in turn gives us the authority to act with wisdom, to lead honorably, and do what is right.
Having masculine traits primarily means that a person is independent and assertive. This related to high self-esteem and to success in many situations.
Having feminine traits primarily means that a person is nurturant and interpersonally oriented. Such people therefore, tend to experience greater social closeness with others.
Both men and women have the ability to express terms used in each column.

People should use traits - as the situation requires.
